In cider terms, 7% is no biggie, though. I’ve quaffed pints of Old Rosie in the pub and that’s 7.3%.

I can only conclude that the people serving you this beer were charlatans, I’m afraid.

Well, yes...as evidence elsewhere in the thread. It is, I believe, a 'hipster' pub.

I am no fan of cider.

You'd like mine, p. Delicious, it is. And very...cleansing.

I stick to the black stuff, b. My body doesn't react well to beers and ciders these days. Yours sounds like the equivalent of a chemical weapon. (No offence) :)
