Cider review: Somersby Pear Cider (4.5% Denmark/Finland: Carlsberg/Sinebrychoff)
Somersby is among the ten biggest cider brands in the world. Somersby Pear is a sweet pear cider and is originally a brand of the Danish beer company Carlsberg but is brewedfor the Finnish markets by Sinebrychoff . Since Somersby is the child of the gigantic Carlsberg corporation, one can expect no home-made qualities from the cider. However, considering the fact that it is among the ten biggest cider brands in the world, the flavor is surprisingly natural. Somersby prides itself in containing only natural flavors and receiving its sweetness from sugar.
Taste: Very sweet, yet refreshing and surprisingly natural considering the bulk nature of the product. Reminiscent of pear juice, although definitely not of home-made one.
Overall, Somersby Pear Cider is a good choice for inebriation purposes for those who prefer the taste of cider over beer. It stands out positively among the selection of bulk ciders in Finnish supermarkets but can't compete with ciders of smaller producers. For connoisseurs it does not offer any exciting taste experiences.
