Frosty Jacks Cider

7.5%,  2.5L, £2.15  From Your Vide Zone

The Bottle Says: "Extra Stength 25% Extra Free"

MArAkOn says: This proved to be quite a find at the vide zone. To tell the truth we weren't really expecting much and for £2.15 this would prove to be a bargain basement cider. But how we were wrong! On a hot summers day the design doesn't look elaborate but looks so cool and refreshing and at 7.5% it certainly proves to be refreshing.

As the picture clearly shows Frosty Jack's is very akin to the one and only White Lightning. The aroma smells of apples, unlike White Lightning, which smells of chemicals. Again unlike White Lightning this cider doesn't taste of chemicals, it actually tastes of apples! It fizzes on the tongue but upon swallowing ceases to be carbonated and as such pleasantly sits upon the stomach. It is therefore safe to say that this cider will not give you the dreaded gut rot that plagues other contenders for the tramp juice crown. 

In Conclusion: Frosty Jacks is indeed the champagne of tramp juice. At 7.5% alcohol content it doesn't rival Tennents and Special Brew but that would be like comparing apples to oranges. This is a cider and ciders don't come anymore special than this! Frosty Jacks seems to be new upon the tramp scene but expect to see this chap in the premier division before long and under the arm of many a discerning tramp. This cider achieves a 10/10

Rortise says: "Compared to White Lightning, the same division but in an entirely different league"
