Real cider: The new generation of British producers
| It was the first hot day in spring, and the north London pub seemed perfect – bustling but not too busy; a huge, lushly green suntrap garden; and a wide range of beers from which my other half could pick. I've never acquired a taste for hops, and asked instead for a cider. "What flavour would you like?" asked the barman. I scornfully suggested apple, given cider is made of apples. "We've got passionfruit and apple," came the reply. "Or kiwi and lime…" Perfection: dashed. |
