I am very stringent about my cider. It has to be Strongbow.......nothing else will do. Blackthorn is too dry and is cheap dross, Woodpecker is way too sweet it strips my palate off and makes me fart, Autumn Gold.....don't even go there. I do prefer my Stongbow on draught, but will resort to a bottle if there's nowt else. If there is no Strongbow whatsoever, I have been known to have a word with the landlord stressing that lack of knowledge about decent cider is not a good work attribute.......I have even been known to have a soft drink instead of a rank alternative.
