when you're so compelled to post everywhere that you enter threads asking your favourite example of things you don't like

The Magners product range includes the cider varieties: Magners Original, Magners Light, Magners Pear and Magners Berry. The cider was originally produced as "Bulmers" and continues to be sold under that name in Ireland

I never get why they bothered to change the names, but its so funny when i go to Rory G fest, loads of Magners everywhere lol

Frosty Jack :D

jk i'd rather not wake up in a bin or a cell. x

Seriously though - Bulmers, Kopperberg or Stella - easiest to drink, most cider tastes vile to me. Magners especially, and although I despise any kind of white cider - mixing it with Blackcurrent :love:.

Pear Magners :worship:

Anytime I've seen it as Bulmers, it's just the flavoured version. The classic Magners is still sold as simply 'Magners' in Belfast at least.

I love how I just said 'Simply Magners' - I read it in a 'M&S Advert' voice tone. :laugh:

Koppaberg Non - Alcoholic pear. I don't really like the taste of alcohol so I either have to have non - alcoholic or mix it with lemonade.

Only in Ireland, they aren't the same thing here. Magners is produced by the C&C Group, it's called Bulmers there but they can't call it that here because there's already Bulmers produced by H.P Bulmer

I barely know anyone else other than me that likes Strongbow, it's always slagged off :hmph: but it is the best cider <3

Also, cider in general > beer and spirits

Yeah warm Strongbow isn't nice I'll give you that, but ice cold on a hot day it is gorgeous :love: it goes straight in the fridge if I buy some cans

Magners. Not had it in ages though actually, might have to get some in.

I'm not really a fan of the other flavoured ones, I can drink one but they become a bit sickly after a while.
