Description: (TLDR)
CAMRA's 1996 guide to cidermakers and outlets, 14 pages of associated articles and information including a couple of pages from Kevin Minchew.
On the back of the book it says:
"Cider is making a major comeback in popularity but Real Cider is still difficult to find. The aim of this guide is to help you find one of Britain's oldest, tastiest and most fascinating drinks. Cider has been made in Britain since before Roman times. But most cider you find in pubs today has been pasteurised with carbon dioxide added. The resulting drink bears little resemblance to the full flavoured taste of traditional Real Cider.
This book lists more than 2000 pubs selling the real stuff plus many farmhouse producers from all over the country, many of whom will sell you cider - and it's equally drinkable cousin perry - if you bring a container. Some will even sell you a container.
Ted Bruning is the editor of the Cider Press, a quarterly supplement to What's Brewing, CAMRA's national newspaper. He has collated information from all over the country to give you a taste of this fine traditional drink. So why not join him and savour a wealth of different flavours.
