Title: Hard Cider (Saturday night alcohol thread)
Post by: Eel O'Brian on March 24, 2012, 11:30:08 PM: I could get into real trouble with this shit. Goes down like soda. Pretty good stuff, very refreshing on a Spring evening.

I'll just be over here on the porch in my rocking chair, talking about how in my day people made their own rope out of cat guts, or something.

Post by: Olivia Wilde Homo on March 24, 2012, 11:48:11 PM: It's four different kinds: thai curry, hot, parmesan garlic, and spicy garlic.

Tastes great, especially when washed down with $7 champagne :hyper

Post by: Eel O'Brian on March 24, 2012, 11:49:06 PM: haven't had the thai curry but it combines two of my favorite things and sounds awesome
Title: Re: Hard Cider (Saturday night alcohol thread)
Post by: Olivia Wilde Homo on March 25, 2012, 12:15:24 AM: Thai Curry was pretty good.

So I drank a bottle of champagne and ate 24 wings :-\ What a fat ass, mods should change my name to "Willco."

Had a pint of Port's Wipeout IPA at dinner, and now enjoying a bomber of Deschutes' Hop Henge Experimental Imperial IPA.

There's a spicy garlic? That's sounds delicious.

As for hard cider, they first time I ever had one was new years, and I was hooked. I can't believe it flew under my radar for so damn long.

Post by: Eric P on March 25, 2012, 09:13:19 PM: we went to Worcester Ma for the weekend and alcohol was so fucking cheap there

We grabbed Cabo Wabo Anejo, Great King St and bottle of Balvenie Double Wood (for $20 less than I'd buy it here in NY).

Post by: Inspector Thatcher on March 25, 2012, 10:38:59 PM: Wish my local pub had cider on tap.

The closest I get is Strongbow in a can, and while I don't mind it, I like others (See: Magner's) more.
Title: Re: Hard Cider (Saturday night alcohol thread)
Post by: Mr. Gundam on March 25, 2012, 11:05:01 PM: There's a meat pie place by my house that has Magners on tap all the time, but we've got lots of great local craft cider here.

Post by: chronovore on March 26, 2012, 08:59:07 AM: I don't drink much cider, but I like Wyder's. It tastes like it was made with pippin apples.

Post by: Steve Youngblood on March 26, 2012, 03:17:19 PM: Before I developed a taste for beer, hard cider was a go-to of mine for a while. I still enjoy one on occasion, but when I pick it up now, it's largely for my wife's sake.

This tastes like cough syrup. They were having a clearance sale of these bottles for $4 each. I got a few and didn't regret it :rock

Even cheaper when you cross the New Hampshire border (which is like 1 hour north from Worcester). No sales tax :usacry

Post by: BobFromPikeCreek on July 08, 2012, 03:42:59 AM: i did cap the night at 7 am with half a bottle of soju, so fuck me i deserve this.
Title: Re: Hard Cider (Saturday night alcohol thread)
Post by: chronovore on July 08, 2012, 03:09:07 PM: When I had a whole bottle of soju in Pusan, I lost track of the whole night. Not sure how I got back to the hotel, apparently I woke up and jumped into a fighting stance, felt pretty bad the next day.

I can't imagine what would come from mixing Jager-bombs and soju. I'd have predicted some kind of international incident.
Title: Re: Hard Cider (Saturday night alcohol thread)
Post by: Cerveza mas fina on July 08, 2012, 03:49:35 PM: Is Korean Soju the same as in China?

If so :omg
