It reminded me of Appletise or something slightly alcopop. I wouldn't go looking for it, or even buy it, but much like I was told White Zinfandel is aimed at people who don't drink wine (hence why I thought it was nice), I think Cidre is aimed at people who don't drink cider - again why I probably like it.  |

i'm not familiar with badger - yes i am having googled them, i have been known to enjoy a fursty ferret a few years ago.
i do miss ales when i'm in france for the winter months, it's very rare thet i'll drink a lager when i'm in the uk. the saving grace is that i work in the highest official guinness pub in the world for those months and free guinness is certainly not to be sniffed at.
in reply to other guinness related posts we do have many irish punters who have very good things to say about our guinness.
Hopping Hare is their best effort |

Guinness Foreign Extra Stout captures our gift to the world: deep, rich and satisfying beer.
Originally brewed in Dublin and first exported in 1802 it's been brewed locally throughout Asia, Africa and the Caribbean since the 1960s. Here, it's the undisputed Guinness beer of choice.
Today, Guinness Foreign Extra Stout is a Guinness world-beater 40% of the world's Guinness Beer is a little foreign and has a little extra.
Extra Stout: Export Class
Guinness Foreign Extra Stout is brewed with extra hops to give it distinctive character and extra shelf-life in warmer climates. It's an export-class beer for countries with a taste for distinction.
Experience it as it was meant to be enjoyed; in a glass or as it comes, straight from the bottle.

Don't know much about these new-fangled Guinness products but bottled Guinness is dreadful pap. Canned isn't too bad, which is strange cos I always reckon bottled lager is far superior to canned.
Anyone ever tried Polish Pure Spirit - one of the local expat-Poles brings some over from home on a regular basis.

Behave yourself, Stowford Press is the kiddy. That Stella Cidre is OK too. |

Cider is shit. The one thing I won't drink, anything else is drinkable.

cidre is only 60% apple i think. not like other ciders
Yeah I think it's 50% and according to recent advertising 70% handpicked. I don't know why Stella discloses the apple content, it's not a selling point. |

Katy tastes good but can be lethal. Aspalls do some good cyder too (yes, that's how they spell it in olde Suffolk). |

True... Actually I really like Aspall's Peronelle's Blush (or whatever it's called). Don't know many that admit to drinking it though as it's quite girly. Which is fine for me, being a girl and all! |
