Somersby (cider)

Somersby (Pronunciation: səmərrzbjʊ; marketed as Somersby Cider in English speaking countries) is a brand of 4.5% abv cider by Danish brewing company Carlsberg Group. Developed in 2008, it was originally developed for the Danish market, but today has been launched in more than 46 markets, including all of Europe, Nepal, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, South Korea, Canada, Sri Lanka, South Africa, the United States and Laos.

In 2012, Carlsberg UK developed and introduced a new version of Somersby Cider specific to the United Kingdom market. Somersby Cider UK is a 4.5% ABV medium dry cider with no artificial flavours or sweeteners.

Despite its Danish origin, the cider is marketed in many territories as being the creation of "Lord Somersby", a fictional English Lord.

Apart from pure apple cider, the Somersby brand is also being used for pear cider, blackberry-flavoured apple cider, rhubarb, elderflower, ginger lemon, blueberry, apple burst, cranberry-flavoured apple cider, citrus-flavoured apple cider, watermelon-flavoured apple cider and a calorie-reduced apple cider.

In Poland, the brand Somersby is used by Carlsberg to market fruit-flavoured beer instead of cider. This is due to the relative unpopularity of cider as a type of drink among Polish customers, as well as legal restrictions on the sale and marketing of cider in the country, which include a ban on advertisement.
