As S2H says, about a month afterwards. I had the remnants of 2 boxes and they were fine for ages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need some personal supply as well as the pints from the bar. I've seriously been considering getting some Burrow Hill, but that really does seem silly.

Skoo Posted June 4, 2019 Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 Just ordered a 10L box of Lilley's Scrumpey Cider, in Medium. Never tried before, hoping it's yummy. Also another vote for the Friel's cider in small cans you can buy in Tesco. Absolutely delicious and very strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilley's put sweeteners in - maybe everyone does and the only difference is that Lilley's are honest about it, but I'd have rather not have my cider sweetened with anything other than apples.

amyg1990 Posted June 5, 2019 Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 I've ordered a few 3ltr bags of Lilleys Cider Tastes like cordial, and will be fine to drink warm - mango rhubarb and pineapple are my tipples! http://www.lilleyscider.co.uk/3l-bag-in-box-c102x3096508 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoo Posted June 5, 2019 Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 Pleased there are a few votes for Lilley's here, never tried it before so taken a bit of a punt. Don't mind about the sweeteners if true, use them in my tea and coffee every day anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartbert two hats Posted June 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 Just now, Skoo said: I'm sorry I ever doubted you! I should jolly well think so too! ? BTW, I really enjoyed Sunset, but I didn't trust Gladiator, which was over 8%, so made me suspicious about its purity. Lilly's most certainly do make better cider than virtually of what you van get from the shops - I'm just not convinced it's the best cider you can buy online.

Theres a small pub right next to where I work that does 5 of the Lilleys and I always get the mango to start my evening. Will be getting some more in for 2000 Trees.

grilladelphia Posted June 5, 2019 Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 Another vote for Kingston Black - they had one of these (not Hecks though) at Bad Apple bar at Boomtown for a few years, was around 8%, and from memory they opened around 11am. down one at the bar, take one away to have with breakfast. PERFECT start to the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasperella Posted June 16, 2019 Report Share Posted June 16, 2019 Now that we've all selected our cider of choice, any one got any good ideas about how to decant just enough to take around the for the day? Wyld Wood comes in the perfect 3L bags...can I buy these anywhere empty which I could then fill with other cider? I've got a big 25L bag and I am not going to be able to lug that around with me!
