Love cider. My favourite is Brother's Toffee Apple, though a lot of people seem to find that sickly. Just have to celebrate WCD tomorrow and maybe the day after

There’s some beautiful farmhouse ciders in New England.

Bunch of guys who’s parents owned a failing orchard turned it into a brilliant cider based out of Boston. Down East cider. Unfiltered fresh pressed apples. Bit of yeast. That’s about it. Just like alcoholic fresher pressed apples

Just tried their regular cider with pear last week.

Not a perry. Just a cider with a little hint of pear. Lovely.

Also, don’t knock a strong bow on a stupidly humid day, poured over ice.

Wonderful

Same company that make Strongbow, but nicer and costs more. Strongbow’s the cheap piiiiiss brand.

Didn't realise Magners and Bulmers were the same.

Oh right. We have both in England. Heineken owns Bulmers but not Magners.

Cider is for men who don't like the taste of alcohol but don't want to admit it to their friends.

And women.

Most 'ciders' in supermarkets are not 'real' cider.

Real cider is produced naturally from apples and should not be carbonated or pasteurised. It is made from pressed, and fermented apples. Nothing else.

The sweet fizzy stuff you can buy in supermarkets such as brands like Magners, Scrumpy Jack, Woodpecker, taunton, Strongbow have northing to do with real traditional cider. For example the ingredients listed on a can of Strongbow are: Fermented apple juice & glucose syrup, water, sugar, carbon dioxide, acid: E270, E330, antioxidant: E224 (sulphites).

Just saying, if it is World Cider Day.

It's confused by the fact that there is an English Bulmers and an Irish Bulmers. Personally I'm not a huge fan of the English one but the pear one is ok. Magners however is lovely.
