National Cider and Perry Championships

The National Cider and Perry Championship recognises the best cider and perry in the UK. They are chosen at the Reading Beer and Cider Festival in May, which features over 550 beers and 150 ciders and perries, plus a selection of foreign beers, wines and mead.

Each cider and perry in the competition is judged on its individual taste, aroma, flavour, after-taste and overall appeal. The top awards were selected by a specially chosen panel of both experienced and novice judges.

Get involved!

Why not head down to the Reading Beer & Cider Festival to learn more and try some Championship ciders and perries?

One of the largest beer festivals in the UK, it takes place in early May in Reading each year.

Mayfayre’s Cider (Herefordshire) took home the cider crown in 2019, having impressed judges for being well-balanced and more-ish, boasting distinct spicy and woody notes and a dry aftertaste.
Cleeve Orchard’s Perry
Cleeve Orchard’s Perry (Ross-on-Wye) took home the perry title in 2019 for its floral and full-bodied flavour, which had a hint of smoke in the aftertaste.
