Fascinating to compare the 1 year growth of these two different top worked trees. The first image shows Sandford Jersey and the second Kimbolton (I think, but I was walking Freya). Where one has exclusively upright growth, the bushier habit of the Sandford is quite exciting and unusual!

In the Yew Tree Peterstow drinking a 2025 Foxwhelp. Kegged as a pét nat it's a beautiful cider. Vibrant and juicy, with beautiful floral aromas, strawberry notes and of course that refreshing, intense acidity. Find it at:
Fell NQ, MCR
The Old Shoe, Sheffield
Hereford Beer House
It's pretty wet out there.
Our first Ciderkin will debut at the Yew Tree, Peterstow, later this month!
There is a skip function but my wife disabled it. A highlight of the day to unexpectedly get to listen to Solar System in full. Phwoar
My song of 2026 is "Solar System" from the Travelling Songs Tonie. It's sung beautifully. It's also track 10 and I can't find it anywhere else online so getting to listen to it relies on my 19 month old daughter not replacing the player with her Peppa Pig audio story and resetting the progress.
🍎 Friday vibes @ B33R@33 🍏
Our cider-only fridge is fully stocked with fun bottles. We also have Vumpy, Somerset Redstreak, Iford ABC, Pulp Piña Colada & Yarlington Mill 🍻
🎶 Sun 4–6pm: Ste Cat live – amazing singer/guitarist & covers!

It is, undeniably, a dry cider. There's no sugar here. But you really don't need sugar to have something be gloriously fruity!
It is the sweet flavour of apple long preserved and deepened by the magic of fermentation and maturation. With this variety there is often also notes of apricot, sweet pastry and balanced by the resolute bitterness.
If you drink one Ross-on-Wye this month it should be this 2022 vintage Bulmers Norman SV. It is, to me, a completely joyous cider. When the days are dark and wet, this cider is defiantly, gloriously fruity. In one glass, it is what bittersweet cider is meant to be!
If you think cider is just for summer then you've not got the right cider to hand

Barry @barmas.bsky.social sings a song of praise to part-time cider and perry makers, artisans with a deep commitment to craft, tradition and the land.

Cheers Matthew. A cider that's aged beautifully! Hope you've been keeping well!
I bought this a few weeks ago from @thatbeerplace.co.uk and I can confirm, it's incredible. Real cider from real cider people @rosscider.bsky.social
Some of our contributors reflect on the 2025 Ross Cider Festival, where cider, community, and personal connections all manifest in one place. @rosscider.bsky.social

🍎 🍏 Cider Release On Thursday 🍏 🍎
Handily coinciding with the next Manchester Cider Club, we’ve got a real treat this week with our second ever cider release. We’ve got five ciders for you, all made using cider from the 2023 season.
Was lucky enough to be on the judging panel for this cider and it blew me away! An absolutely perfect Yarlington Mill S.V. - the character of the variety captured at perfect ripeness and fully expressed.

We are delighted to announce that our Yarlington Mill Keeved 2022 has won a gold medal in the International Cider Challenge. 🎆
Thank you so much to the expert judges for rating this cider as highly as we do. 🥂
Available now from our webshop!

Sorry folks, in the name of education, we're going to be closed on 15th July as The Ciderologist, Gabe Cook hosts the Cider Association's Certified Cider Professional training, both for our team & some other lucky peeps.
Maybe some of the attendees will go on to become fully fledged Pommeliers 🤔
A particularly fun cider. We bottled half and kept half, and now, solera style, we've blended in some 2023 vintage. New edition comes out at end of August!

Albert. This is gorgeous.
Flights booked to get me to the 2025 @rosscider.bsky.social festival. It’s the kind of event that reinvigorates my passion for cider and perry, so I just have to go!
What a pub!
Finished up at Beer Shop Folkestone with some really good cider & perry from @rosscider.bsky.social and Baron Bigod cheese. Lovely place, good vibes, great drinks & snacks selection!
Kicked off the weekend @uddersorchardcider.bsky.social cider festival. A brilliant community event with over 25 ciders on offer. Going to be a beautiful weekend, so may have to nip down again.
