Hawkstone Rhubastard Rhubarb Cider
When rhubarb and apples joined, outside of wedlock, Rhubastard was born. Zingy rhubarb tartness finely balanced by ripe apple sweetness and zesty citrus. In Jeremy Clarkson’s words, this "makes even the grumpiest you-know-what smile"!

Tasting notes
Tart rhubarb, sweet apple and fresh citrus on a gentle sparkle
The Cider
The apples and rhubarb used in Rhubastard are grown on farms across the UK, including Jeremy Clarkson’s own Diddly Squat Farm. It’s a celebration of local produce, brewing skill, and a real masterclass in balance. The tartness of the rhubarb is finely tuned with the natural sweetness of the apple base, creating a refreshingly different cider that’s both bold and approachable. Add in a touch of citrus zest and you’ve got a cider that’s as complex as it is crushable. It’s not too sugary, not too sour, but just right. And it’s picked up multiple awards, including Gold at the World Cider Awards 2025 and recognition from the Great Taste Awards. Confirming what fans already know: Hawkstone makes damn good cider.
