That's a point. Theakston do (or did, anyway) a vintage[1] cider, which was
quite pale and not too fizzy[2]. Quite expensive in pubs, though!
[1] Made with old apples.
[2] I prefer still cider. Try Weston's Organic Cider, or Vintage Cider, available
in supermarkets (Tesco) near you.

I quite like the ciders! Really got a twing to them! I think I can leave the bitters though. I actually got to do a scrumpy with the bits! :yh_bigsmi

Got to be scrumpy...yum!
But not "Scrumpy Jack".
Visit http://www.thatcherscider.co.uk/, see "Farm Shop". Take your own
containers, or buy 5L ones there - the stuff out of the barrel is very good, the
stuff in 2L bottles (e.g. "PREMIUM PRESS") you can buy at various outlets has
somehow had its flavour removed and its soul destroyed. Of the 1/2 litre glass
bottled ones available, Katy, Somerset Redstreak, Spartan are nice. "Oak
Matured", ptui!
All IMO, of course.

To be honest Pinkster I dont remember much about it!! :-5
One of the continental wheet beers then - usually strong but cloudy.
Prefer mine clear and dark - much like the Theakston's Old Peculier which, when they first brought it out, they would also only serve in half pints.

I recall it as 1972 but that could just be when I first came across it.

You could make your own scrumpy. Pink's Scrumpy. It's got a ring to it.
