Strongbow is the drink of champions, Blackthorne is horrible, weve also got, bulmers, magners, and scrumpy jack on tap here!

Strongbow is a girls drink pure and simple,

Try some Thatchers or Black rat for a decent drink!

They have Magners on tap by me which is always nice on a "Summers day" - so I've only had 1 pint this year, but I prefer Brothers Pear Cider. Tastes like sherbert and goes down a treat.

When I were a nipper it used to be diamond white mixed with Castaway forming a noxious "Blastaway" - a guaranteed dance floor nightmare!

Magners and bulmers is ****e! Its like apple squash by the time the water has melted, shouldnt even be allowed to call it Cider.

Yes as you may have guessed if it aint west it aint cider imo!

Win :D


Of all the tap ciders I've had, those two are the best. I wouldn't touch the likes of Magners, white diamond, blackthorn etc with a barge pole and as for strongbow... I had some once, it tasted of sick.

My favourite cider is Hennys dry from Frome. Yummmy

Stowford press is the fav' atm. Some of those special Tatchers jobs are pretty damn good too (read: potant!)

BTW! If you even chill your cider, let alone add ice, your getting a slap :)

Good man! Kopparberg pear cider is pretty nice. I also like Woodpecker as it's quite sweet.
