If you live anywhere near by, the Ealing Beer Festival has a good range of ciders and perrys. And 200 beers. Last day today.
I went yesterday which is why I'm still in bed just now.  |  |

Henry Westons Oak aged Vintage, 8.2% a lovely drop of stuff.
It's sad that a lot of the older English cider makers are being squeezed out of the market by that sickeningly sweet girlie cider from Sweden (can't remember the name) or Passion fruit and papaya cider Old Mout from New Zealand. The bigger brewery's are muscling in on the growing cider market with a very very substandard product ie Stella Artois.
Buy British!! |  |

Proper cider you have to go to Somerset for. I've got family who live in Chard and they live a few miles from a cider mill and the stuff they do there which you can draw straight from the barrell and buy is like nectar. Forget all the mass produced Stella/Magners stuff, it's like chalk and cheese after you've tasted this.

Cheddar Valley.
Naughty brew from Somerset I think.
Cloudy, tasty and makes you laugh like a drain. |  | | |

Cheddar Valley is my favourite... as long as I don't go past 6 pints.

Among things that you can get reasonably easily it's Henney's vintage for me. Good flavour, dry, and still. |  | | |

Any of the Westons Ciders for me-Mortimers Orchard is probably my favourite, but they're all pretty lovely! |  | | |

Years ago my sister lived in Taunton, a cider mill was bang opposite her house, they sold scrumpy in imitation stone flagons, blow your head off stuff. | |

Lidl started selling Sheppys. Pretty strong but good stuff. First had it at The Compass in Swanage |  | | |

Sheppys is the real deal. Been to their brewery a while. Real Somerset stuff rarely found. |  | | |

Herefordshire, parts of Worcestershire and Gloucestershire as much as Somerset, in fact for proper perry it pretty much has to be Glos or maybe Worcestershire.
In principle you're right, mass-produced vs farm-gate cider is like Watney's Red Barrel vs London Pride. | | | |

Thatchers gold, drink that. Never ever drink magners it's 80 percent added water and 20 juice, that's why they say add ice, because if you don't it tastes horrible | | | |

I'm now living in Devon. Amazed at the 'cider houses' that were once here. No wonder they're all closed down, most of the locals are barmy. Still plenty of places producing cider, one a couple of miles away in Musbury | | | |

isn't Magners and Bulmers the same? | | | |

With all due respect to Brian McCarthy and others on here, the clue is in the fact that Magners is marketed as Irish.
Ireland has never been a cider-making country on a serious scale, any more than the north of England has, the climate is not right for it. | | | |

Personal choice but cheap and flat over fizzy for me.
Cyderkline (sp) is good but locally you struggle to get decent cider - Thatchers and Stowford Press the best I think
Anything served in a white plastic bottle that looks more like like WD40 should be bought immediately |  |
| I've found a team sheet for the weekend - anyone interested ? |
