Gold

This is probably my base line for rating cider. If it is worse than Thatcher's Gold then it is awful. This is the distinctively ok, A little sweet and too fizzy but I can drink a few if pushed.

It's what I get for my drink included with a meal at spoons... nothing much more than that.

Nothing special but an ok drink not too sweet or too dry, think a lesser strongbow perhaps?!!

Not going to set the world on fire, not particularly fruity or punchy. Fizzy & sweet, couldn’t have a session on it.

Gold colour, clear with mid range fizz. Chemically aroma. Sweet non descript flavour. Ok if there’s nothing else!

This is an unremarkable cider. Drinkable, but not the stuff of which memories are made.

This is a very drinkable cider though it does not stand out. I could see a person drinking pint after pint and the pub as it goes with anything and would not offend the palate. However, it isn't interesting or complex.

Light golden colour with a almost sour taste. Not much more to say.

Mass produced, perfectly drinkable. It's best attribute is that it's not bad. I wouldn't drink it every day. once a week is acceptable.

This cider is funky in flavor more than in nose. The flavor is a little bitter on the back of the tongue. Thatcher’s Vintage is much more interesting.

Unobjectionable. Has a bit of funk on the nose, but that doesn’t really carry into the taste. A bit on the light bodied side, not quite watery, but close. A refreshing cider, but not horribly interesting.

Very easy drinking, goes very well with food, is quite light and refreshing.

Yellow colour, with an apple candy aroma. Apple candy flavour, with little aftertaste. Acceptable if nothing else available, but quite bland.

Rather blah. It also tastes heavily commercial to me. I didn't like the bitterness on the back end either.

A solid choice for bulk buy cans or bottle. Best of the basic bunch

I picked up a phenolic flavor at the end that wasn’t appealing to me. I also noted it on the nose so it started and ended with that phenolic funk. I was trying a half pint of this and Haze with my dinner. Maybe it was the food but I preferred the Haze over the two options that I had. However, I liked the Burrow Hill Perry that I drank later the best.

This could grow on me, clear crisp, funky nose, but otherwise unexceptional

Easy drinking quality from thatchers

My all time favourite cider! Has a lovely deep after taste.

Largely tasteless fizz, only acceptable as a thirst quencher in a heatwave.

Smooth sparkling cider,medium taste

Steady.

A great every day cider that is crisp and refreshing with a little phenolic kick to it. I take it over other “mainstream” ciders

Lovely cider

a nice, non offencive cider. very easy to drink and quite enjoyable.
