Very pale with even a lime green tinge. I don't recognise this as a scrumpy so I'm struggling to describe my thoughts, it's more like dry acidic white wine. A slight apple/pear taste and slightly carbonated with a 7.4% ABV.

Had bag-in-box. I've a soft spot for Winkleigh but can't gainsay other reviewers on this one. Strange that their medium and dry are so good but this is so below par, and somewhat weird. A change of name is in order, maybe Devon Off-White Cider?

Pale yellow colour, clear with moderate fizz. Light chemically apple aroma. Slightly wine like so the opposite of what I would recognise as scrumpy. No discernible apple taste. Can’t get on with this.

Pale, lime green, with an indeterminate fruit aroma, falling somewhere between apple and pear, but not really either. Strange, monotonal, chemical taste. This is more like a poor quality Scandanavian pear cider than scrumpy! I have never seen scrumpy this colour, nor tasted one with so little depth or character.
