Title: kopparberg pear
Post by: Sippo on Tuesday, November 13, 2007, 09:29:59
55p for a large can in Ikea. That is a bargain if there ever was one! I was tempted to buy a crate last night. Ideal for christmas.

Abit sweet for my liking, couldn't drink it all night.

Are you a Magners drinker?

Not magners, but am partial to a pint of strongbow now and again.

Cider is my main tipple really. I've started drinking draught Scrumpy down my local which rots my guts terrible.

Woodpecker is refreshing in the summer even if weak as piss water.

I thought IKEA was a furniture store.....never been in it myself, preferring to recycle old or antique furniture.

    I don't mind a bit of perry....used to get some from  Weston's at Much Marcle until Fred West put me off the place.

   Anybody tried that St Helliers tackle.....proud sponsors of the Champioinship....don't think I've seen it anywhere.

 Oh right.....is there anything other than this pear tackle, that you can't get in bog standard supermarkets.....the only Swedish foodstuffs that I see regularly are meatballs and crispbreads.

You cant beat the real stuff, sold by the gallon from local farms down here in zummerzet, 7% flat and cloudy and around 55p a pint, how it should be none of this fizzy gassy shit that masquerades as cider.

And thats apple and pear ciders.

I'm a bit of a sucker for Kopperberg i must admit! Only discovered the stuff recently but it's pretty tasty. Can see why some would find it too sweet though - I don't think I could drink it for a whole night

  Don't think so, although I might be wrong, as large retail chains don't interest me over much, I seem to recall they were looking to build one on the old allotments site down by Barnfield Road,  Talk talk would probably have an update on that.

Shout for the best cider ever made? Love that stuff myself! Although a bit of the ol' Westons cider or Katy cider, goes down nicely  8) 7.5-9.5%  :beers:
