Title: Cider
Post by: tricky on March 18, 2009, 10:42:02 AM
Who here besides C and myself like it? What kind do you like?

My preferred cider is Woodchuck, more specifically 802.

Hers is Strongbow.

One or two is nice, but it's too sweet for me to drink more than that.
Title: Re: Cider
Post by: FAH-Q on March 18, 2009, 03:45:57 PM
Yeah, ditto. Actually, more often than not I find myself halfway through one wishing I had a beer instead. I do like it, I just like beer better.

I'd say I really like Ace Pear cider.
There's some apple cider made here in Central Texas that I like too.

Yeah, cider in the States is like thick apple juice, right? And what we call cider you guys call hard cider or something?
Title: Re: Cider
Post by: punkallstar on March 29, 2009, 02:03:38 PM
i think magners is the same in the states as it is in europe, same with strongbow.  some of the american ones, like cider jack or woodchuck are too sweet.  woodpecker is good, especially on tap, i think that's english though.  cider is definitely better on tap cos even the sweet ones come out a little more dry.  no one i know likes it sweeter, i don't get why strongbow isn't more popular in the states.
Title: Re: Cider
Post by: tricky on March 29, 2009, 03:40:26 PM
Yeah I don't love a lot of the Woochuick flavors such as Pear and Granny Smith. 802 is the best. Surprisingly, the Raspberry isn't too horrible.

I can't drink a lot of cider in one setting, it does get a bit sweet. I usually mix up what I'm drinking, like cider and then mixed drinks, etc.

Also, there was cider at J Patrick's.
I made sure to check the menu for it, but i didn't drink any of that girly shit!

i don't drink beer.

i've seen huge rugby players in ireland/UK drinking cider, they'd kick your ass for calling it a girly drink!!

plus it always rocks a decent alcohol content

that's just a flat negation on beer?  without even knowing anything about the lambic variety?

i don't drink beer either, 'cept for Guinness once in a while. i just don't ever like it.

 I prefer Murphy's to Guinness, but it's hard enough just finding Guinness on tap outside of the NE.

Post by: punkallstar on April 04, 2009, 11:30:40 PM
i don't drink beer cos i medically can't - autoimmune issue (celiac disease).  i used to though, before i was diagnosed - but i was diagnosed when i was 18, so whatever beer i drank was of the i-can-get-my-hands-on-it variety.  including the warm ones i kept in a "liquor cabinet"

one day, when i was 17, my mom found my "liquor cabinet."  when she questioned me about it, i told her i was depressed and was going to take a nap.  she never bothered me about it again.

You're doing it wrong. You're supposed to do it like this:

Yeah that's what krsna's saying too. I don't buy it. Just skip over tiny font. That's the intent. If you're really interested then go ahead and read it. Otherwise skip the sucker. May as well complain about use of parentheses (or hyperlinks (http://blogs.citypages.com/dcody/images/243200303_s.jpg)).

Might as well complain about shit that actually does something instead of an annoyance you have to deal with in order to understand the poster's joke? You make no sense sir.

Who cares if you don't understand the person's joke? When was the last microjoke that was actually funny?
I usually put my saddest jokes or most boring thoughts in micro specifically to avoid annoying others.
What options do i have left? Just shutting up?

You said the same exact thing in a different thread. Hence my belief that you should've quoted yourself in this thread instead of just putting it as a normal post. Get with it, Lucus!!

Maybe tiny font self quoting is the new new trend.

So returning to the topic at hand, I've never had cider (apart from the delicious drink Si called "thick apple juice") but I've always been highly curious about the alcoholic variety.

This trend has continued. I can't get SB everywhere, so I still drink beer pretty often, but as often as it's available I drink cider.
