I taste tested the BEST British ciders for my first-ever blind taste test! Can I guess which ciders are which..?? Probably not.
If you're an expat in the UK like me, do yourself a favour and taste test as many British food and drinks as possible! In my humble opinion, the UK has some of the best ciders in the world!

Hey! I'm Alanna - a twenty-something documenting my life as a Canadian living in England.
I share the ups and downs of an expat living abroad and what it's really like living in the UK. It's not always easy, but there's been so many wonderful experiences, too. I post a KZbin video every Tuesday & Friday plus an additional video every Saturday on my Patreon account. I also livestream every Wednesday and Sunday at 5:30pm GMT/BST on Twitch.

"Bulmers Original! I would have never guessed." GLUG! Comedy gold. My favourite is the 8.2% Westons. Neck two bottles and you can forget the night ever happened. Total night-night juice.

I didn’t think Woodpecker cider was still made. For those of us of a certain age it was definitely our first experience drinking alcohol as a teenager. I remember being very ill drinking that, would never touch it again 🤢

Yep, Woodpecker used to be my drink of choice late 70s & early 80s, when most pubs only ever had Woodpecker or Strongbow, and seldom both. Then my local started to stock an unlabelled cider that I think was brewed in someone's bathtub on one of the local farms. It was much cheaper and tasted ok, and 3 pints had me on the floor!

All the Ciders were either made by Bulmers or Westons. The Bulmers factory is less than a mile from where I live and in the summer, the whole city smells like cider! Woop! Go hurfudshuuuure!

Oh my! Woodpecker used to be the underage drinkers "let's-get-pissed-on-Saturday-night" alcohol of choice back when I was a teenager. It was cheap, came in 2 litre pop bottles and was so sweet it didn't taste like booze. This was 50 years ago, so it's been around for a while!

Of all the ciders sampled, Bulmers Woodpecker is probably the most filtered, most pastuerised cider available, and yet it was Alanna's favourite. That's a bit like a real ale enthusiast plumping for a gassy lager as their beverage of choice.

'Woodpecker' cider is tasty enough. During my youth it was classified as the weak person's cider before you graduated to 'Strongbow' cider. Looking back now they are both more chemically enhanced and bear little/no resemblance to real cider (scrumpy) like 'Old Rosie'. Great cider selection from Herefordshire (HehRaFordshurr).

You twice thought Thatchers but they were not there, however you obviously know the brand and if you ever get down this way call in to the farm and try there rough (scrumpy) cider. Somerset is the true home of cider. There are also small makers with excellent ciders of their own.

I can remember clearly as a student at Exeter University, going to a village called Thorverton, north of Exeter, and the bar man suggested I try a glass from a barrel in the corridor outside the bar. Silly me - that had to be the most alcoholic drink I have ever had. Scrumpy indeed! All the folks in the pub had a quick chuckle as another student fell prey to what was no doubt a common stunt.

Hiya. Back in the day, we used to have Woodpecker as the sweet cider to offset the bitterness of the stout (Guinness) when ordering a Stout & Cider Black Velvet. Other stouts are available. A bottle of each mixed together (obviously) would give you a pint and it's quite a 'heavy' drink. Stay safe. All the best to you.

I thought that after that cider testing session, you would be up on the worktop, dancing and swinging your glasses over your head laughing.....:) But no... I have heard on the internet of a 'Dickins Cider' which apparently is popular.. I reckon there was a lot more cider consumed, but edited out......later....:) Good video!...

Great taste test! My favourite ciders when I lived in the uk is Aspall’s Cider. Unfortunately Aspall cider was responsible for a early bath for me on what should have been a pub crawl lasting the whole day. I usually drink ales but for the first 4 pubs we went in there was very limited choice so I ended up drinking Aspall organic 6.8% or their Premier Cru also 6.8% so within 2 hours I was pretty drunk and decided to go home early in disgrace

As a Brit, and I believe other Brits may concur, there IS ONLY 3 major brands of cider in England and they are Strongbow, Taunton and Woodpecker, but there is ONLY one grand daddy of all ciders, and it's called Scrumpy, the strongest cider in England, Alanna? If you get to travel to the SW of England stop off at a small pub in Somerset and ask for a pint of Scrumpy, then try and walk out the pub door, and then you'll know why the locals call it "Knee Trembler". Real Scrumpy only comes from the Somerset area, there are ripoffs, being sold, but nothing compares to the real Scrumpy, also, real Scrumpy made by the locals in Somerset is around 15% alcohol by volume, whereas commercially bought Scrumpy is between 6% to 9%. Even though I live here in the US now, I originally hailed from a small village in Somerset called 'Four Forks", and I basically grew up on Scrumpy, I make here in the US, and man! hehehehehe, my neighbor tried it and just like moonshine, he couldn't breath for a while,,, his throat started closing up, but after a while he drank a bit more, and I said to him "I bet you can't drink an entire pint", he laughed and sure enough he drank the whole pint, and gloated "see I told ya, I don't feel nothing", "yeah?", I said "now get up and walk out the door" (this was in the winter), as soon as he started to walk out the door, the cold air got him and his legs literally gave out from under him, I just laughed and laughed and laughed, I just couldn't stop. I can only drink 2 pints and I'm so far wasted I can't even talk not alone see straight.

Way back when I worked in the assay lab in a remote iron/copper mine in B.C. the chemist was an Englishman named Albert. His drink of choice was cider in in the townsite beer parlour. It was either that or very old bottled beer. When Albert retired the lab and mill staff organized a cider bash and flew in a whack of different kinds; I'm pretty sure there was Woodpecker in the haul. Came the day and we all gathered in a house and surprised Albert with the party. He arrived and promptly asked for a gin and tonic. He explained that he only drank cider because it was better than the dodgy beer. There we were loaded to the gills with cider and the only guy who regularly drank it wasn't having any. Cider hangovers are pretty grim.

Drink it cold and out off the bottle. Heineken is my 2nd so far. Tests like the beer .again drink it cold in a glass . Both refashing. Getting drunk by watching you.😄. Last bit.

Now i, I am a bit of an authority on cider. Well, an enthusiastic amateur with vast experience, as my Facebook bans will attest to and my favourite is Thatcher's Vintage. Henry Western's Vintage used to be called Old Rosie and I have only passed out on my mates hall floor once after walking up the hill to his house despite what the tabloids say x

Another great taste test by Cider Lady Alanna. My favourite .s still the Canadian Cider ' scientist ' vid from some bank like , when you got properly sloshed in the garden , complaining about neighbour lawn maintenance. It's pure good !! Any Alanna can HAS to watch that one. Keep up the great video work , enjoy your holiday back home , and my best regards to your Liver !!!😂😇

Brilliant! Nice selection from Hurfudshuuuure... what? ☺ Respect to the two engineers of this grand cider tasting extravaganza. T'was fab. Think I've had Woodpecker, years ago, think I remember the TV ad - guess which bird was in it, or at least in the ad running round my hazy memory. Cider! Huzzah! ...an'hic, brrp.

3 ciders from Westons, in my home village 🥰 love them all and it makes sense you got mixed up between the 3 of them when they are from the same local orchards. If you fancy visiting, they have a tour, a restaurant and shop plus you can sometimes see the shire horses 🐎😀

I don't have a favourite cider, because I never have it. But... you know... for the algorithm, I suppose. I am having a beer (or rather, a beer several times in a row...) watching this, though, so... Cheers!

Hi Alanna.A short lesson in English pronunciation-no offence intended! Herefordshire- say it as Herree fud sheer, or the posh way-Heree ford sheer. As for Cadbury-please,please, PLEASE-NOT Cad-berry-it's Cadbrees or Cadborees! Love the videos, let's have many more, from Mike.

Hilarious. No such thing as an unnecessary, Adventures and Naps taste test. Woodpecker's been around for decades, it's a mass market brand. While not English, I do like Magners, especially with a spicy curry or Thai dish. Three cheers, a hick and a burp to Ellie and Lilly.

Bulmers, Strongbow and Woodpecker Cider are all Ciders that I would call mainstream company brands. Which are made In large quantities all over the UK, as opposed to the others. I like the idea of blind taste tests, can we have more, please?
