Magners

[Ian]

Is it just me, or has everyone started drinking Magners lately? We've just got back from the pub, and over 1/2 the people were drinking it (including myself, as its lovely and refreshing!).

Is this just a co-incidence, or is it catching on everywhere?

 

[bodhi]

Its true mate. Everyone drinks it now. Apart from me.


Good news is though, it counts towards your five a day

What the hell is Magners?

I take it it's some kind of cider.

Best cider was served up at Glastonbury Festivals, early eighties.

It was served from a big (read huge) barrel on the back of a horse drawn wooden cart.

Always used to arrive Wednesday afternoon, set up tent, gather firewood, then about 8pm wander over to cider carts.

Four pints later, ready for bed

These days, just Guinness & Bitter, kinda gone off Cider.

hate beer though!

I'm not the only one then 'orrible struff.

Love the smell of homebrew though.

Pity about the taste.

As for cider... well, after my experiences with Fred's cider....

Mind you, it is great for the creativity

It's amazing what a good hairdresser I become with a bit of cider in me...

Aye Ady?

'New' Thang!?

Funny you should mention this...
My colleague has been yomping on about Magners for about the last 2 weeks!
He even made me taste it!
Interestingly enough.... compared to the good old Strongbow and Woodpecker, which I have avoided since my adolescence - Magners is surprisingly smooth! I think I could even find myself purchasing a jar or more of it!
Apple juice is good for you, after all!

Never heard of it, what is it?

 

[bodhi]

It's the female version of a pint

[size=-1]Magners is the new name for Bulmers cider, so I would say apples are "in it" and water.
