Man & Scythe in Bolton town centre had big barrels of cider behind the bar when I used to call in before descending into hell. Otherwise known as the cellar of the Swan (Good old days of the 70s).

This stuff was various shades of orange, had lumpy bits, the odd rat bone, and god knows what else in it and tasted like flat ****. (Not that I know what **** tastes like). However, 3 pints and you knew you had had a drink. No fancy pumps, just a tap knocked into the barrel and out flowed the **** with a kick.


That to me was cider, nowhere near cider country, but somebody knew where to get his barrels
