    Thanks, always up for a new cider!  Which should I be on the lookout for?

    @injunjack:

    Try some french ciders….better tasting imho, and worth trying

      Wow, that's hard question…

      You could try Ecusson Brut.  (Cidraie is also good)

      Mainly lookout for 0,75L bottles that are sealed with champagne style cork.

        I'm in ATL and you can find Strongbow at every chain grocery store here.. I used to drink only cider before I drank beer

        Picked up a bottle of Stone Arrogant Bastard for this weekend.

          Thanks!

          Yeah I'm finding strongbow at more and more retail outlets but still hard to find on tap at bars.

              Exactly what I was thinking, Mega.  One step up from White Lightning, imo 😶

              Depends what's available where you live though, I guess.  We have it easy here these days.

                  I'll add McEwan's Export to that list.

                  Not the lager varietal - this horrible stuff…

                    Is that the UK equivalent of Olde English Malt Liqueur?

                      Is that a drink brand in the UK, or are you talking about moonshine?  Because if you're talking about moonshine, that's what my bad teenage memories include.  That, and piña coladas made with everclear…

                        White Lightning's a very strong and very cheap cider 'brand' (in the loosest sense of the word) here in the UK.  Not even sure if it's still going (it was in my 90s student days)

                        Drunk mainly by low income wastrels, a large proportion of which were the aforementioned students.  Nasty stuff, especially lethal when combined with low quality strong lager in homebrew-style 'snakebite'.

                          The best part about it is that it comes in 3 litre pop bottles. When I was studying in the UK, we had a White Lightning challenge. First one to finish their bottle won…I don't remember much, but the corrosive taste of victory!!!

                          Fat dudes need good clothes too.

                            So a lot like moonshine and everclear, then. 😃
