About Cider & Perry Real cider is a long-established traditional drink which is produced naturally from apples and is neither carbonated or pasteurised. Real cider is in a similar situation to that which faced real ale some 30 years ago with the number of outlets diminishing even in the West Country. Perry (which is made from pears) is in a similar situation and is rarely available away from the farm gate - Wassail!.

CAMRA encourages all pubs to stock at least one real cider or perry preferably from a local stockist. There are now cider producers all round the country and not just the traditional cider counties of Devon, Somerset and Herefordshire. For further information, including a list of real cider producers approved by CAMRA, please see Real Cider .
