Gratz to eveyone.

pingwing · 24 Mar 2013 at 13:46

Cheers DJ for braving the elements for this

3 perfect rounds so far too!

PapaLazaru · 24 Mar 2013 at 13:57

Nice one DJ. My entry is very nice, but not for people that do not like proper farmyard tasting cider. That 3 litres got me a little tipsy for TWO nights it is so strong. Only £6 in Tesco atm as well. Going to get some more.

robfosters · 24 Mar 2013 at 13:58

Thanks DJ

Damn you Raptor :mad:

Squid · 24 Mar 2013 at 15:07

and not a single strong bow , well done guys !

Moobert · 24 Mar 2013 at 15:14

Someone threw out my entry and had to upload the rekorderlig at the last minute, it was a sure 4 pointer too . Will teach me to drink it before uploading.

I agree.

DJ, I got a little confused as to one point this week. Did flavours score individually? Some of the brands do so many flavours. For example, would you have classed apple Kopperberg and Strawberry Kopperberg as the same cider?

Repta · 24 Mar 2013 at 15:42

I did send a fixed entry with mk 2 on it! I sent that entry with my B one before i realised the rule! My fault though

~Mike~ · 24 Mar 2013 at 15:59

Haven't drunk mine yet, a local one I had never heard of before so thought I would give it a try.

Firstly the points, 1 point for most popular (plus another for valid entry hence a total of 2), as we had two groups of two people with similar types it means the most popular choice is tied. Different versions ie. flavours would not have been classed as the same drink but rather as two individual versions. Make more sense?

K.C. Leblanc - Black Dragon Welsh Cider :eek:

That stuff is fantastic, whered ya get it mate?

Mine was terribly bland :/

Voltar · 24 Mar 2013 at 16:41

Gratz to all.

I'd certainly recommend the one I had.

Raptor · 24 Mar 2013 at 16:44

Damn you Raptor

sorry about that, I actually bought 2, but the wife dropped the other one.
We would have both got 4 pts.

I got it from my local off license. http://www.skettywinemerchants.co.uk/

I'm hoping to use independent retailers and local pubs for most of the contest as well as focusing on smaller producers.

It should make round 22 interesting. :confused:

Kanifee · 24 Mar 2013 at 20:14

Glad you have power back mate.

Enjoyed mine, well balanced and tasty.

Sonea Fifer · 24 Mar 2013 at 22:49

Gratz to everyone that entered - it's nice to see so many entries along with so many getting full points as well

I bought two of the huge 5L tankards of my cider - at just under 18 pints I haven't yet opened either of them but I'm sure they'll have the same effect as yours did.

Also it was good to see DJ and Dennis Quaid both survived the real Day After Tomorrow weather. Hope you're recovering well dude?

Dennis Quaid lol

Recovering slowly, still no mains water (into the fourth day now) and only heating is the fire. So it's like waking up inside a fridge, only good thing is that it takes your mind off there smell....

Cheers for asking

DirtyJester · 25 Mar 2013 at 12:38
