Been busy all day boarding my bathroom nightmare of a job, but I digress, once I cleaned up and put stuff back in place and had a washup.
I cracked open a bottle of Black Dragon cider and very nice it was, then I read the percentage on the bottle at 6.5% In only bought the one as I enjoy the Orchard gold cider thats very nice and at 4.9 % it's more acceptable.
Don't drink much cider as a rule, but enjoy a few ciders now and again especially on a warm day.
I guess that there are sa few cider drinkers on here, so my question is what do you enjoy? |  | | |  |

I like a cider when I’ve worked up a thirst on a warm day too. I love Aspalls. |  |

Used to enjoy Taffys Apples, but I ended up oliver twist to many times on the stuff and its far to sweet, but I like this Orchard gold, its smooth and suttle. | | | |

I adored Taffys Apples. I’d forgotten about that. | |

Best non-craft cider by a mile. Normally one of the supermarkets have it on some sort of offer… |  |

As mentioned for some reason (me also!) cider is very nice chilled on a very warm day, far nicer than other alcohol beverages that get poured into a pint glass.
Strongbow is the one for me, it must be the most popular cider brand out there surely, if you had a Family Fortunes type question asking to name a brand of cider I reckon Strongbow would be top of the list. It seems to have been around forever. |  |

Yes the vintage is 8 or 9% - best drank like wine so pace yourself with a nice 250 ml glass
When I built our decking out the back in 2020 while the outlaws and her and the kids were in Spain for a fortnight I ordered 2 x 10L boxes of Westons Rhubarb Cider free delivery and me and the cats had a lovely time ! LOL ! It goes down like squash but in the heat it can't half knock you sideways...! | |

Bow is a mind altering drink, I'll never drink it again. | | | |

I’m not averse to a pint of ice cold Strongbow. | |

Many moons ago as a young buck me and my mates took a road trip to Devon camping .
We all bunked into a Triumph Herald and a Millets tent , great days we had .
Stopped in Taunton en route and the suggestion was to get some cider from a local farmyard as a supplement to our travels later that evening parked up ,
Our first introdction to homemade scrumpy off the orchard was a taste never again tried . |  | | |

Didn’t know you did manual work
Those friendly Irish travelling folk would have done that for you , scrubbed the patio and repaired the roof and all in a day
Woodpecker for girls
Bow for rough boys
I detest British cider but cider de Normandie is passable | |

You need to try some Welsh Cider, it's a game changer. | | | |

Ste
Coder to me means being 14 and trying to get somebody to buy some Woodpecker in the Black Boy to take out for a party on Wimnerfield where they’d normally be parties
Those were the days
Do they sell this cider in England? | |

Merrydown cider, absolute nectar but at 7.5% it’s not to be trifled with. Sharp’s Cold River isn’t a bad pint either. | | | |

Tried San Miguel's Especial last night, bought 3 bottles in Tesco for £6.50, its smooth yes, but that's where it ends for me, got 1 bottle left though I'm not looking forward to it though  | | | |

Black Dragon is a nice one, although another strong brew at 7.2%. Also worth trying Old Crow at 7.4%, although it's not as commonly available as the former. |  |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

Bought 4 bottles of Orchard gold yesterday, 4 for 8 quid in Tesco as opposed to 3 for £6.50, Mrs had to pop down Tesco Express earlier asked to get me the original San Miguel but they only had that Especial which I didn't want, not to my liking so she got me a few Moretti's just seeing off the first one. 
Been busy today Morriston Cemetery first Mam would have been 89 today and its fathers day tomorrow, popped to the Village Cafe in Kilay for Breakie lovely Breakie there, Briton Ferry recycle centre next then Cardiff to pick youngest up from respite. | | | |

Can't beat a nice cold pint of Thatchers Gold.
Also like a bottle of rattler if fancying something sweet, or Kopparberb Pear cider is very easy on the pallet. | | | |
