Cider Drinking

Robbo

To prove a pub bet...

A sizeable portion of the metalheads I know are voracious cider drinkers. God knows that during my metal phase I drank nothing but the stuff.

Can a decent cross section of ye verify this?

Acidflash

sickle

DrunkLeprachaun

No, I don't drink(anyone see the inherent irony of this?).

OLDYELLAR

cournioni

I don't drink any cider at all. I'm a Whiskey man I am!

I know plenty of people who drink it full time though. (they are metalheads)

beardedchicken

I drink Bulmers the odd time.
Mainly been drinking Guinness these last few weeks.

OLDYELLAR

i did a project on bulmers , just to prove how supportive of it i am , i got 71% for it , so it paid off and then i went out for a celebratery pint , all part of the project of course !

Guinness now, but back in the day when I was young and carefree in college, I was known to devour the odd pint of either (in order of merit) Scrumpy Jack, Hudson Blue, Bulmers or (if strapped for cash) the ol' turpentine tasting Lindon Village. Brrrr, thems was the days.

Karl Hungus

Stonehouse is the best Cider.

mise

cider drinker indeed, but no bulmers in spain so im stuck with "cashels" wheich isnt the best.
tho just discovered martini and lemon, so good and pretty cheap,

Never thought about that certain link before, you could have a point there!

While I would not describe myself as the most ardent of metal fans (Cradle Of Filth, System Of A Down, Mudvayne, Rammstein etc all fantastic but I listen to my share of (Gulp!) Paddy Casey also (Awaits immenent backlash!))

But the most ardent of cider drinkers? Alright then!

Bulmers, Stonehouse, Hudson Blue, Linden Village, Crofters, Strongbow (Farewell Mr. Kidney) Blackthorne and even....... *GASP* Organic Cider!!!!! :eek:
(Actually bloody nice...and strong...and cheap, kinda reminds me of me )

deco

Robbo your reign of betting terror msut stop!!!

Dun

Blood type Vladivar Vodka+ on a Sat. night :cool:. Couldn't stand cider after my first couple of months of the stuff.

Good job though, nothing else gives me a worse hangover - sick as a dog and roadworks in my head.

I'm sure there are plenty here that know what I'm talking about

What are you on about? Never happens to me...oh wait...there's my old friend "Denial" again

A few of my mates reckon cider is only a poor student drink, and while i know this is true, there has to be a select few respected members of society that drink "The Loony Soup"

Not saying that students aren't respected members of society, just that...well i'm one myself you see... and........

What's that you say "Shut Up?".....Ok then!!

Tazz T

Definitely in my younger days but these days I mostly stick to guinness although I do have the occasional relapse in the summer and when I feeling completely hypermetal.

LUZ

mmmmmmm...hot...mulled....spiced cider...........mmmmmm...in plastic cups.............

scuzzy

Yeah, definitely a Bulmers head, but I have been tempted by that seriously cheap German beer from LIDL, eg. 2 litres for E3.16!

byte

Bulmers here. Mmmm

Snip182

definately bulmers al da way cant beat it man

Most definitely the pint bottle of Bulmers, no glass thanks, when your off head banging!


I must admit though that my head banging days are getting fewer and further between, so Carlsberg is taking the edge off the world these days. :rolleyes:

Hellrazer

God be with the old days when you had yer 2 litre in Merrion Square before going to the Thrash Bash in McGonagles.
Cant drink the stuff now though-Makes me mental(Aggressive usually).Can drink anything else though.

OLDYELLAR

if you eat something minty like am chewing gum and then down a pint of cider its very refreshing , its weird but lovely mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm bulmers!

Mossy Monk

Devils Bit does it for me. for the price of it, it does the job. i only have Bulmers when i'm flush

Shiminay

Ah yes, my good friend William (Billy to his mates) Bulmers. He's never failed me.

Strongbow's good too!

Cider is the only pint I can actually drink - I can't stomach larger / ale / porter.
