My aunt is a wine-o because it's gluten-free also (obviously)...but now I know what else I can bring to her place when I visit & we're all drinking so she can try it.

Wow, I know I'm not a beer drinker when I've never even heard of this stuff.
Is it just me or is strongbow a really goofy name?

I envy anyone who can drink cider. I like cider but sadly it can seriously mess with my stomach so I stick to ale.

It's a cider...
The text on their US web site is hilarious...

I can't remember the last time cider was refreshing to anyone's mind.

Awe, yuck. I remember having to order that crap when they didn't have my scrumpy jack. Try some of it, It's the best widely available cider that you'll find on tap in quite a few pubs. You should also try some real scrumpy if you come across any. It's tastes a little like an apple wine and it gets you drunk...and makes you pretty damn angry. If you think your generally a non-violent person, drink enough scrumpy you'll wanna kick everyones ass.
Bottoms up,
Will C.

Never tried Strongbow.....but, I'm a pretty big fan of Woodchuck cider. The Amber Draft is my favorite. However, they're all decent.

Omisan, that's amazing that a company can make something that tastes so crappy and so very good. I say the scrumpy jack should secede.  I long to return to the UK to just have some decent cider. Does anyone know of a way to order scrumpy jack stateside, I can't seem to find anything.
Yeah, give magners a shot too, that stuff's pretty good. It's actually the best cider I've found stateside.
Woodchuck isn't bad but it's full of sugar. I can feel my teeth rotting as I drink it.
Finally a topic I can kinda contribute to,
Will C.

LOL Beergal that's awesome.. I barely had any clue what you said there hehe....
I'm not 100% sure why everyone is bashing Strongbow.. I actually kind of like it.. I haven't tried the others yet... and maybe I'll like them more.. but for now strongbow is fine... expensive around here... but fine.
