@feliz1443 Oh but it did - I was one of those children, and I am cognitively impaired as a result. I am now 12 years old and no-one will give me a full time job because of this

@jubbybrab "small children" certainly implies pre-teen, and although I have very liberal views as far as adult drug usage is concerned, I absolutely draw the line at pre-teen people being given that quantity of a toxic drug. Barman is lucky it didn't become a legal issue, despite the language misunderstanding

They are called Bramley 🍏apples🍏. The only apples to use for cooking e.g. apple pie, crumble,cobbler or apple sauce to have with roast pork🍏

@fafski1199 I bought a gallon of 9% scrumpy for £4 at glasto one year, was far too easy to drink, much nicer than supermarket cider Remember when people thought Pomagne was sophisticated

@jhonbus "small beer" a natural yeast beer, was what saved the UK from the same level of water-borne disease as mainland Europe

@markbriten6999 Blue Nun....or when Stella Artois was seen as a posh lager You had to put a candle in your Mateus bottle for that French bistro vibe!

@markbriten6999 I well remember visiting Bruges in 1982 and having some nice Stella. But Belgian dark beers like Chimay are pretty amazing tbf.

3 litres of Merrydown does the same trick (c 1978)

@jayteegamble If you're a teenager, but alcohol is a drug and a strong one at that. If I said smoke heroin until you vomit(won't take much lol) you might think it extreme. Well drinking until you vomit as an adult is a sign you have err... issues imo

@mweskamppp was there vomiting?

@CarusKyle You should've told them, as I am sure they'd have valued the feedback, unless you accidentally ordered apple cider vinegar

How do you get 18% cider? - sounds fabulous

@magnusbruce4051 Thank you for that - I shall have a go :)

@KNURKonesur Years ago it tended to be too sweet, if anything, e.g. Woodpecker, but I think drier styles were perceived to be more popular, especially with those who also drank lager, which of course cider makers were keen to convert to cider, which is certainly cheaper to make. In the mid/late 70s Merrydown(which came in medium & dry styles) at 8% ABV was a revelation, compared to many lagers & ales which at the time were 3.5% in the UK and pretty appalling at that. I think that literally every style of cider is available somewhere in the UK. IMHO the best is proper cloudy naturally sparkling scrumpy - tastes like apple juice but is 8% or so. Very easy to drink too much in hot weather ;)
