See I thought they tasted the same … That said I’ll still be drinking the festival apple 

Yeah was meant to message you back after I'd drank my few boxes, there is a difference but not majorly. Festival Apple is a bit sweeter I think, and I didn't mind it but Mallets was quite bland.

We're stuck with the Brothers at the bars but would still prefer Thatchers.

Picked up some from https://www.shedcider.com/ last week, unsweetened or pasturised, proper job

I really like the look of them. I'll be placing an order once I've recovered from the festival!

Haze is the best!!! Anyone tried the thatchers Rose? Might grab a case of that too.

We sell it on draught on our bar, it's by far the most popular pint amongst our staff if that says anything. 

I like it, but couldn't drink a lot of it, I can't drink a lot of any cider... 

Side note, is it pronounced rose like the flower or rosé like the wine... Aware of the spelling, but it's from Somerset ffs

Cheers, think I'll grab a case to go with the haze.

Good question on the rose, I read it in a Somerset accent!

Has anyone seen the new Glenfiddich advert. They age their new whisky Orchard Experiment in Burrow Hill cider (The Cider Bus) barrels. I wonder if they'll be serving that at the bus this year?

Do Brothers still do the "Festival Strength" stuff at their bar? Also is it still Perry or is it all Apple now?

I'm sure I read a tweet from them saying they'll be serving the Festival Perry at the bar
