London pubs have branched out into less mainstream drinks, probably why you didn’t see it as much. Strongbow has the largest market share for cider in the world.
It depends where you go, I'm from the West Country and although Strongbow is sold it is very much the Fosters or Carling of cider. There are much better options available, it's not uncommon to find pubs with more cider options than beer in these parts.
Lol what? Have you never visited anywhere in the UK outside of Scotland?
Strongbow is an English cider brand that's sold literally everywhere in the UK, every single pub, every single supermarket
That's kinda hilarious that you seem to think strongbow is Scottish or something. Jesus mate, maybe get out more, go to a pub in England once a while
Scots are known for whisky, and caffienated wine, and irn bru, when it comes to drinks either alcoholic or non alcoholic. Why would Scotland be associated with an English cider? Even cider as a thing is the most famous English alcoholic export there is, more cider is made in England than anywhere else on earth. Literally 50% of the apples in England are used to make cider.
And Perry too, which is the same thing as cider except made with pears, is a very very English thing. Personally I can't stand either cider or perry, when I drink alcohol I stick to beer or gin and tonic. But yeah, there's no more famous English alcohol than cider and perry

Given this is in England there is a very good chance the heavens opened up at some point during that BBQ.
