Is this the largest range of
East Midlands Ciders and Perries ever assembled in one place? Probably, but even seven producers is less than half the total now producing locally. These are the bottles I'll be taking to a talk and tasting session for
Rutland CAMRA at the
Plough, Greetham this week. More details of these and other East Mids producers can be found in a new leaflet, available to download
here from the
Nottingham CAMRA website. It is hoped that an even wider range of local ciders and perries will be available at the
Nottingham CAMRA Beer Festival in October.
L-R: Skidbrooke Cyder, Spalding Scrumpy, Roundhead Cider, Rockingham Forest Cider & Perry, Torkard Floppy Tabs Cider, Beeches Cider, Marron Pear Cider
I'd never realised there were so many local producers of cider. I guess it's about time I used some to cure a ham.
ReplyDeleteMore than happy to donate some cider to this experiment Phil, although I have to admit, we haven't got any at the moment...
ReplyDeleteHam for cider sounds a fair trade. We'll have to sort something out.
