Also watch out for "Byrrh" a concoction from Brittany that disguises itself
a "cider". That is, of course for those buying something in a bottle.

And for those of you who will view the British beer with some alarm and
go to the apparently familiar cider, please be reminded that it is very
alcoholic and will knock you completely on your duff. The Brits take
great and quiet delight in not mentioning this to the unsuspecting. But
do give the Brit beer and I don't mean lager, an honest try. It's not
warm, it's in the low 50° range where it would be as a live beer stored
in barrels in basements. No back of the head falling off when
swallowing.
