I spotted this recently in Asda, £2.27 for 2 litres, 5.3%.

Needless to say I bought shedloads and got utterly wkered!

Does make you wonder what other cheap booze is out there for the kids.
Suppose it has other uses paint stripper,weed killer etc.

You do know it's not cider, just apple juice with ethanol poured in, don't you?

I notice a significant difference in how hung over I feel based on the cheapness of the beer/cider the night before.

If I spend a bit more the hangover is a lot less.

The amount of sulphates and chemicals they pump in to the cheaper end stuff, makes me stay clear.

Definitely concur. I find that for minimal head damage the next day then good gin is always the best bet.

5.3%? Pah



Even more surprisingly, it tastes vaguely like apples which considering it costs £6.50 for 2 3ltr bottle is impressive.

Dear god, you paid too much!

A 3 ltr bottle was about £2.50 the last time I bought some.

Good times indeed.

I haven't drank cider like that since I was about 16.

Vague memories of drinking a barrack buster of scrumpy jack round the pitches on a friday night hehe
