Cider with Evans

Cotswold Cider Company

A modern cider maker with modern twists and branding to traditional cider. The cider of theirs that I've tried so far are indeed different but worth a go. Just don't expect standard session cider.

Freak Show

Medium

Available in boxes/on draft and in tins.

Dark red, hazy and a decent fizz even on draught.

Musty old book smell, which just about overpowers the apple. That sounds bad, but actually it isn't.

Good rich slightly tart flavour with a fair amount of tannin. Well balanced though leaving a nice mouth wetness. Just a touch of cherry on the side which reminds me of a Kriek.

Quite a nice cider despite the nose.

Voodoo Pulp

Dry

From the barrel. Cloudy orange and flat.

Earthy farmyard nose.

Flavour wise, a bit tart with lots of tannin lots of fruit but quite scrumpyesq. If you like that kind of sharp farmyard cider then it’s got a lot to it, but not for me.
