Stella 'Cidre'

Kenai · 17 Apr 2011 at 16:21

I tried this Stella Cidre stuff the other night. It was ok.

It's not the worse cider i've tried, nor was it the worst.

Something I would happily buy if there was a decent offer on it on a sunny day over summer.

I echo this sentiment.

"proper" cider tastes like wee. Magners and bulmers is fine

Doesn't get me drunk and tasteless crap.

You are saying that if you drunk bullmers, magners, or stella ciders then you would not get drunk?

I dont think that is true...

I saw two guys drinking this stuff in the local last Wednesdau, I can't imagine it tastes too good.

I'm not a cider drinker at all, but I don't mind Westons Organic Cider for one or two.

They're reduced the bottles from 1L to .75L recently and charge the same price :mad:

Bland. Not a touch on half decent English stuff. Better off drinking Dry Blackthorn for half the price.

Proper cider from a local cider house is the best.

8-10% goodness with pieces of apple still in the liquid.

Perfect summers evening.

ha, you're lucky. my local bargain booze actually put up the price at the same time the bottles reduced in size. it was 2.39 for 1 litre and now it's 2.85 for 75cl... :eek:

there's no way i'd buy it at that price but it's been 3 for £5 for absolutely ages and that's not too bad.

I got 4 cans of Stella cidre and it wasn't bad, just a bit on the sweet side. Tastes better than their lager anyway.

Might try a few of these in this thread as I've never really been a cider drinker before but got a taste for it now.

MikeHunt79 · 21 Apr 2011 at 17:02

Does anyone know of any off-licenses or supermarkets that sell Black Rat cider in cans?

There used to be a Bargain Booze near me that sold them, but they've now closed down.

I haven't seen anywhere else that sells it, not even the large supermarkets sell it it seems...
