Real cider is normally this strength. Strong bow and other rubbish is reduced in strength to suit the market place.

Now that really does depend on how you brew it, what yeast you use, what sugar might be added, how long you let it ferment, the opening sugar levels and the closing sugar level...but you would know that...

:confused: Erm, no.
You're confusing proper cider with cheap 'Frosty Jack' or whatever. A seasoned cider drinker knows this is good stuff.
Not as good as Cheddar Valley, but then nothing is. :smile:

Tastes good. Still not fizzy. So easy to drink with ice. Be careful!
But it's the end of their stock now so if you get a taste for it get what you can.

Quite correct, you normally find private Brewers work towards 7 to 7.5% and as a child of Devon I can assure you it's the normal strength found on farms.

Aye, it's the usual ABV I come in around too when I actually make my own.
Samuel Smiths put "around" on some of their brews as they can't tell the strength of certain batches due to the selection from the tank ...and could be a lot stronger than they are. I like to work things that way haha
