Literally the worst Cider I've ever tasted :/ Though I've never sunk as low as White Lightning etc Can get better Ciders at that price full price.

Which cider do you think is better? I'm not trying to get at you, it's a genuine question because I like cider and I wouldn't mind trying something new. Magners is about the nicest I can find around here without going to a pub and getting some on tap. Addlestones Cloudy cider is about the nicest I've found.

Thanks for the heads up Ben, I normally drink lager tops over here in the UK so that will do me fine. I've ordered a load of shopping with Tesco and added 4 cases, lets see if they turn up.

Magners and Bulmers are basically the same, and pants, but if it's all somewhere sells I'll force myself to drink it. Addlestones is a lot better.


This, along with most of the Western's choices, and all the other proper ciders. You can normally pick up the bottles on 2 for £3 or 3 for 2 etc. in the supermarkets. Price per litre is normally less than Bulmers/Magners too, so it's win-win.

If you must have a fizzy one then try out Stowford Press, a lot better than Bulmers/Magners/Strongbow/Blackthorn, but it's normally only found on tap in pubs.

As for the OP, that's brilliantly cheap, but I don't drink it. :)

Room temperature is how ales are meant to be served from what I've read/heard.

All of them, under suspicious circumstances as well.

I was merely reminding people of the thread topic. If you like, RTM my OP. The mods are all dead though, remember?
Lol... ok. Just think it was strange that you want a topic of 'thanks for the heads up', etc.
