Lucky Cider 13



Sail & Anchor Castaway Cider

Australian; 5% Alcohol Content.

$3.29 (AUD); BWS (Subiaco, WA)

Castaway Cider is brewed in Fremantle WA (just like Pipsqueak from Little Creatures), yet for some reason, it does not have the same cult status/ appreciation of its high pitched friend. This is truly a shame because Castaway Cider is really good! Much better than Pipsqueak certainly; ok, I will admit that the Sail & Anchor Pub in Fremantle is not nearly as exciting (or trendy/funky/en vogue) as Little Creatures, but this cider is great. It has everything that I am looking for, great apple taste (not too strong or too sickly sweet), good carbonation, no aftertaste, catchy bottle slogan ("miles away from the everyday," ok, that sucks, but I had to work it in here somehow). This cider is a winner and I would recommend it to anyone, any day.

Rating 9.1
