Quite possibly the worst alcoholic drink I've ever had and I've had a 20 year old Darwin Stubbie. There is almost no fizz and it tastes like it was strained through the 10-year-old work boot of a stevedore that's been working the fertilizer pile. Avoid at all costs.

Willie Smiths Traditional Apple Cider in 355ml cans is by far the most delicious and authentic Normandy-style cider available in cans. As far as I can see, as a longtime fan especially of Norman ciders, Tasmania-based Willie Smiths is the first Australian craft cider house to take on the French cider makers and really beat them at their own game. This canned cider has been so consistent in its distinctive refreshing funkiness for years that I prefer it to many premium bottled ciders. But Willie Smiths doesn’t stop at merely making this consistently flavourful canned cider, and a canned dry cider I like less, for everyday refreshment. Their range of champagne-corked premium cider and vintage special releases made with heritage cider apple varieties is extraordinary—each distinctive and worthy of special occasions. Even at prices over $20 a pop I actually prefer them to most Normandy ciders—and I love Normandy cider. This is a world class Aussie product line outstanding among its peers.
