Cider.

[lifetime fan]

Sold 3 bags at a tenner a time and put one away for a BBQ.

 

A quiet Sunday with a Monday off has been quite enjoyable though I must admit.

I've just had some spectacular draft cider listening to one of my mates sing jazz in the afternoon.  Because I've had quite a bit, I can't remember what it's called.  But I'll look it up.

Had a few Koppaberg last night watching the boxing and my arse is in bits today, anyone else get the shits from Cider?

Just took some immodium. Meant be having a curry tonight as well, Bowels will be on overtime tomorrow.

I'm glad you didn't follow my terrible advice.

You'd make a great pharmacist.

Three and half hours in the car and then spot this in my parents' garage. Thank god for the Westcountry.

I deviated from my usual Weston's Old Rosie and tried some of the Addlestone's cloudy. Foul stuff, too bitter an aftertaste, very watery consistency for a cloudy and seems more like someone's mixed a weak lager in with what could've been a half decent cider. Looking closer, I hadn't realised it's a Gaymer's cider in all but name, which would've tipped me off.

Stowford on tap in my local. Price has just gone up to £3. Gutted

Aldi have just started doing a “Specially Selected” Cider for under two quid for a 750ml bottle. It’s fucking lovely - 7.4% and made by Weston’s. Get on it cider heads. Ridiculously good value.

I’m popping in later as they’ve updated their Gin selection for today too so I’ll grab one of these on your request

£1.69 a bottle. Absolutely pie eyed on Friday after five of them.

Tell me more about the gin.

Got given some Waitrose Duchy organic Herefordshire vintage cider for Christmas. Pretty disappointing considering the poncy name; a semi-respectable 5.0%, but it lacks any kind of body or aftertaste. It's not unpleasant, but it's too watery. Oh, and 2016 shouldn't be considered "vintage", I don't touch a home brew unless it's at least a year or two old.

This isn't cheap but it's great stuff.

I think thats made for them by Henry Westons... Weston's is one of the very few of the majors to actually squash a load of apples to make their cider. The vast majority bring in tanker loads of apple juice. (I get around loads of the beer & cider gaffs in my line of work) I have no affiliation with Westons but if you are ever in the area its worth visiting.

This Henry Weston's can be found in my local Aldi @ £!.69 750cls bottle. It's a very agreeable drop and 7.3% so has a nice wee kick to it, which is nice.

 

 

Bargain.

Had quite a few last night with Whiskey chasers, bad idea.

It's never an entirely bad idea, G.

I bet it went down well at the time though.
