Where can I find some good cider in or near Reading?
I’m on the hunt for some quality cider to gift my girlfriend, and I’m hoping to discover something special. She loves the authentic still hazy varieties, so I’d love to avoid the typical supermarket options. If you have any recommendations on where to go, I would really appreciate it!
You have a few great options in and around Reading for finding some decent cider!
Local Pubs and Bars: Check out places like The Alehouse or The Castle Tap; they often have a rotating selection of local and craft ciders on tap. You can ask the staff for recommendations on still hazy options.
Specialty Shops: Look for independent liquor stores or craft beer shops such as Beer & Wine at The Remedy. They usually have a diverse selection of craft ciders that you won’t find in supermarkets.
Farm Shops and Markets: If you’re willing to venture a little outside the city, local farm shops often carry a variety of artisanal ciders. The Reading Farmer’s Market is also a good spot to check out.
Online Retailers: Websites like Honest Brew or Crafty Nectar offer a variety of ciders and can deliver them right to your door. You can filter by style to find hazy options.
Local Cideries: If you’re interested in sourcing directly from producers, check if there are any cideries nearby, like the ones in the West Berkshire area.
I hope you find the perfect gift for your girlfriend!
