For the record I have bottled cider - Somersby I think and nothing t9 write home about. There are 6 of us so one leaves early to avoid queues. Rest leave at whistle and turn up to beer. So I may miss 15 to 20 mins assuming I get them in 3 or 4 times a season.
I don’t get why people would queue either because obviously you need time to drink it so no point getting served minutes before the second half.
