Oh right. I thought it might have been like Kildare Village.

You know, the outlet shops and stuff? Great bargains there.

Anyway, is it one of those new Pear cider thingys?

idunnoutellme

It's been about for years. One of the first drinks I've ever had. I actually had a few cans of it a couple of weeks ago!!

Its rotten stuff altogether..you can still get flagons of it for 3 euro!

There's a great drinking game associated with it (this and other multi-litre plastic bottles of alcohol), where you attach a bottle to each hand with gaffer tape and can't take them off till you finish both bottles.

It's mad craic at the start, but a bit much when you're dying for a piss!

I choose to buy it in cans - feels more classy

So what's the difference between Linden Village and regular Bulmers?

About 20 quid in your pocket after a nights drinking and about 20 years off the lifespan of your liver

Nothing like two litres of Linden village to cheer you up on a friday night

Nothing. They're both sh!te.

The only place I will drink cider is in France, where they actually know how to make delish, cold, tasty cider.
Preferably eaten with a side order of crepes.

I've been liking the Lindo lately again. Didn't drink it for years. I reckon I'll be bring a few flagons to the picnic this year

Thats what you get for not drinking, I thought Linden Village was the place Bono and his mates frequented when they were younger!

Sounds nice though, I might try one if someones buying!







NOTE
According to Wikipedia (so therefore it MUST be true!) it was Lypton Village they came from.

I drank a 3 litre bottle of this under a bridge when I was 14, I can sort of remember it going in but I will never forget it leaving my body as long as I live. Its making me feel ill at the though of it.

The reason they all slag you is because its a "homeless person" drink.

Its decent enough if its been in the fridge for a couple of hours. I dont like Bulmers. Too weak and too expensive.

I also like Druids cider. Very sweet though.

I just drink it out of a 'Bulmers' glass from now on :cool:

Not a bad cider at all, could be worse.

There's all these rumours that its the dreggs of Bulmers but I dount it to be honest.

When I was a cider drinker I drank it but the stuff cuts the stomach out of me these days....

Anyway, there are worse ciders, namely Druids (diabettes in a can) or Hereford (caustic soda mixed with paint thinner).

It was defintely 3 litres, I will never forget it till the day I die.

marwelie

Having drunk 3 litres of it I'm surprised you remember it, nevermind never forgetting it. Sounds rather painful to me!

So what park do go to drink it? :pac::pac::pac:

If my memory serves me correctly which in fairness might be pretty sketchy on this point, but the flavour of linden village was vastly improved by the addition of a naggin of your cheapest vodka to the flagon.

One major reason for the purchase of the cheapest cider and vodka was the fact that your friends bast**d of an older brother always doubled the asking price :mad:

awh gotta love the lindo its a piece of magical cheap heaven and if you drink enough of it you could get a lap dance from a fairy

Daragh101

cider yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!....all i can say is get on the lager mate!:o

Well worth a try is the Tesco brand cider at 3.59 for 3 litre bottle. Nice taste and comes in at 5.3% Bought a few of these 2 weeks ago to have in the house when the lads came round for the football. I was suprised at the quality.

Dont mistake with the very cheap value one.

Linden is beautiful. Bulmer Is a rip off. 6% goodness and a two part pour into a pint of ice makes is pretty amazing
