Loved the way JT tried to twist off the bottle top at the beginning. What sprang to mind was "Don't they have crown cork tops in the USA? What if they don't possess a bottle opener?" - for a while I thought you'd have to either cancel the video, or risk your nice new kitchen worktop, by using the 'smash down' method of opening! A number of observations: 1) It's Thatcher's Katy - pronounced Kay-Tee as in the name 'Katy' ('Katy' is a variety of apple grown specifically for cider making.) 2) The volume of the bottles (both 500ml, it turned out) has no bearing on the alcohol strength even if they'd have been different volumes, (since it's expressed as '%ABV' - alcohol percentage by volume) 3) "the green apple - that's what it tastes like - I guess that would be the kiwi & lime" - alternatively, it might just be because it's made FROM APPLES! 4) The Thatcher's Vintage got a 6/10 rating from Anna, but then she declared at the end of the video "I don't like it". Surely if you gave it a score of over 5/10, you must have liked it a little?! (I've just been drinking a bottle of Henry Weston's Vintage cider while I watched your video: 8.2%ABV, so 0.1% less alcohol than your Thatcher's vintage, but much richer and much smoother - more akin to a wine than a cider - Yes it is only 11:45am here in the UK, but 'the sun is well over the yardarm, [nautical term] so my conscience is clear, even if my head won't be if I drink another two of these!)

@DaveBartlett I was on holiday in Ibiza years ago and I bought a pack of beers in a cardboard box. Four of the bottles were a twist off crown top, but the special bottle in the middle had a normal crown top. After downing the four twist off's, I grabbed the special one and yes, you guessed it, I tried to twist the cap off.

We have different levels of cider in the UK. First is scrumpy. Generally a fermented flat, cloudy apple juice which is a very acquired taste. Second are the stronger sparkling ciders. Can be generally more Smokey in taste. Then the lighter ciders and flavoured like old Mout. Refreshing and can be drunk a lot more in quantity and finally the cheap ciders. Sold on larger plastic flagans. Super strong, more like paint stripper and drunk by vagrants.

I got a bottle of Keeved cider from Booths once, traditionally slow fermented but it was in a wine sized bottle and the price of a bottle of wine. Their 500ml ciders are often 3 for £5 or used to be so not overpriced compared to the mass produced junk.

Beer is made from malted barley, hops, water and yeast- cider is made from apples and water - it produces its own yeast and sugar, much like grapes, make wine.

Thatcher's vintage is probably the best cider on the market imho, followed closely by Old Rosie. No need to compare them to beer btw, they're completely different animals. Cider is made from the juice of apples, no hope or malt involved.

Those are posh "premium" ciders, only thing posher is one called "Aspall's Premier Cru". The most commonly sold one is "Strongbow" in original plain apple flavour, followed by "Dark Fruits" (apple and blackcurrant cider), and "cloudy apple". With similar style name brand options "Woodpecker" and "Gaymer's Old English". A brand called "Bulmer's" is the most commonly available one from Ireland: plain apple, pear cider + "crushed red berries and lime" versions

Katy = Kate-ee Simple pronunciation rule: double consonant after a vowel results in the lower case pronunciation (a,e,i,o,u), single consonant after a vowel results in the upper case pronunciation (A,E,I,O,U). There are exceptions, chief amongst these being split digraphs, but you can't go much wrong if you follow the single or double consonant rule.

I've got around half a dozen independent cideries close to me and I live in the East of England! West country cider is usually slightly more tart and made mainly or totaly from cider apples like "Yarlington Mill" or "Dabinett". The East of England tends to blend apples like "Granny Smith's" or "Russet's". Many British don't realise that cider making 'was' huge in the East of England until Gaymers was taken over, closed and moved to the West country. Fun fact, Gaymers “Ye Olde English Cyder” from Norfolk was originally made to be exported to the USA. I never happened as this was 1939 and we know what happened then? Well at least we do!
