The Bottle Says: "Um its a bring your own container you know"

Rortise says: : Delivery was taken of 4 containers of this deadly brew, and with each container containing around 8 pints we expected sickness and possibly death. In true farmhouse style the cider had residue in it and came in a previously used container-it is always nice to see un-commercialised farmers using this technique in time honoured tradition. Another plus point was the price an absolute bargain if there ever was one. This cider had a reputation for strength going into the review and it came out with this reputation intact.

As the photograph clearly shows this brew could be petrol, but what the hell, it was still worth reviewing. On pouring you cannot help but notice the intense smell of vinegar emanating from the cider. This smell was worse than traditional farmhouse finest but it pointed to an abundance of strength, and strong it was! I did not believe that this was 9% but after the first sip I can indeed verify that it is. Many of us set out to review but after one sip Spooner was seen heading down to get some Strongbows. Special mention goes to Lucy who managed a pint and Papa Piaggio who kept up a pace with me. I am assured that a blend of Chisel Jersey, Kingston Black, Michelin, Browns Apple, Yarlington Mill, Dabinett and Harry Masters Jersey organic apples are used. If that meant anything to you please post on the forum because it means sod all to us here at trampjuice. The first taste of Burnett cider is indeed not one I wish to repeat, it actually stings the back of your throat! This is not only super strong but super dry as well-when bought proceed with care! However, after two pints your legs become detached from your body and you can no longer taste the cider, so it can't be bad. Special mention goes to the lack of fizz this in itself is commendable, but, combined with the strength it does make Burnett Cider a rarity.

In Conclusion: First off I appreciate that there are two varietys of Burnett cider and the variety sent for review is the all singing all dancing strong behind the counter wink wink nudge nudge version. This version may not be available to the general public but upon buying say the guys from trampjuice sent you and I have been told that you will be sorted out with this stuff. Anyways I particularly enjoyed this cider, more so than White Lightning. It is also cheaper and stronger than White Lightning making it a bargain in my book. The only problems encountered is that Burnett cider is exclusive and therefore is hard to get hold of. Because of this two marks have been knocked off and the final score is a 8/10
