Name - Rekorderlig Winter Cider
Type - Apple Cider
Vol. 4%, 500mL crown sealed bottle
Brewer - Rekorderlig
Origin - Sweden
Importer - N/A
Verdict - Apple cider flavoured with vanilla and cinnamon. They say it can be consumed cold or warm. Consumed cold, it again tends to a bit sickly, and, yes, bubblegummy. I wouldn't go it again. Now just let me waddle off and nuke a bit of it. Be right back...
So, warmer, slightly better. Perhaps because it's in a mug rather than a glass, and there's no expectation of cider. Still not worth another go around, though.
Years of drinking have ruined my memory. This is one way of trying to recall what I liked, and what I didn't. Not really intended for public consumption, but if you're here, welcome.

Rekorderlig Premium Pear Cider
Name - Rekorderlig Premium Pear Cider
Type - Perry
Vol. 4.5%, 500mL crown sealed bottle
Brewer - Rekorderlig
Origin - Sweden
Importer - N/A
Verdict - Sweet pears are my favourite fruit. I'm also partial to ciders and perrys, and while this is nowhere near a traditional perry (nothing Rekorderlig does is close to cider, it's more like sugary deliciouspiss), it's still a fun drink. Funny I found the apple a bit sickly, but the pear not so. Considering I eat pears when they're right on the edge of fermenting, I guess I've been well prepared.

Rekorderlig Premium Wild Berry Cider, Sweden
Name - Rekorderlig Premium Wild Berry Cider
Type - Flavoured Cider
Vol. 4%, 500mL crown sealed bottle
Brewer - Rekorderlig
Origin - Sweden
Importer - N/A
Verdict - Ribena booze. Not a bad thing, but I had higher hopes. Easily defeated by the strawberry and lime, to finish a distant third.

Rekorderlig Premium Strawberry and Lime Cider
Name - Rekorderlig Premium Strawberry and Lime Cider
Type - Strawberry and Lime flavoured Cider
Vol. 4.5%, 500mL crown sealed bottle
Brewer - Rekorderlig
Origin - Sweden
Importer - N/A
Verdict - I was certainly skeptical, expecting it to be the worst of the 4 standard Rekorderlig varieties. Christ was I wrong! A beautiful, clear strawberry flavour, and a tangy hit of lime to cut through the sweetness of the strawberries. Just as good on second tasting, and a great one for those a bit skeptical of the cider-style drinks.

Rekorderlig Premium Apple Cider, Sweden
Name - Rekorderlig Premium Apple Cider
Type - Apple Cider
Vol. 4.5%, 500mL crown sealed bottle
Brewer - Rekorderlig
Origin - Sweden

Verdict - Sweet apple flavour, perhaps a little sickly. Certainly strong and sweet, but slightly artificial tasting. As far as apple cider goes, perhaps I'm still a little too tied to the traditional Anglo-French styles. Their other stuff is crazy-easy to drink, though.
