Where did you get it? In the pub/shops or from the brewery?

I found it in Tesco's in Addlestone. It had a 'new product' label next to it. Would be suprised if most Tesco in the area don't stock it.

Sounds good and worth a try...

Bought 8 cans of Scrumpy Jack from Sainsburys at the weekend and four of the cans have been signifacantly fizzier than the others.
Have not had Scrumpy Jack for a while and remember it being fairly still,anyone else noticed it getting fizzier ?

No, but I see the bds at Tesco now sell it in 440 cans and yet my local corner shop still has the 500mls.....

Ive alo had a few tins punture, just from carrying them home, the material is sooo thin nowadays.

I just popped into the Fox in Corscombe (Dorset) and had a fantastic pint of Sheppeys Traditional (I think). It was just scrumpy enough while still being fizzy. Could've sat there all day.

Go to "traditional" and you'll find proper Somerset rocket fuel. I recommend the Cheddar Valley. Here's a picture - this is about the true colour:

Ooohh, yum. They sell that in the Orchard in Bristol, round the corner from the workshop (before we moved to Avonmouth

I remember drinking Cloudy Rattler in a little pub in Padstowe about 6 years ago and it ruined me, you can get it in bottles up here in Notts now but its no where near as good

[woody2846]

After a session if drinking Rattler in June- I awoke about 3am with the worst headache in the world- I actually cried!!! Great tasting but by Christ does it bite.

Rattler makes my OH really strident - it's so funny. I'll be drinking along with her and she turns into this outraged Mail reader after about pint #3.

Anyone had Orchard Pig ? Not sure who the brewery is but I have had it in a few London pubs.

Very drinkable dry cider but gives a cracking headache when I have more than 3 or 4 - most of my team was wiped out last Friday!

Off to the Great British Beer fest @ Olympia tomorrow, they always have a VERY good Cider bar...

[woody2846]

Having a few bottles of Cidre- not too shabby at all.
