For Stella Artois Cidre please read SWEET FIZZY APPLE JUICE. Thats it. That is all there is to it. It's just another SWEET CIDER (with a sour citrus after taste).

Lets be honest Mick - did you expect anything else?

 

[dennisking]

Wasn't planning on trying it, but thanks for the warning Mick.

No Calum I didn't. Got it for the Mrs. She didn't want a whole bottle so we just shared it. Even she wasnt impressed.

we had a bottle of our 1 year old tc today and it was fookin great... :party:

well rounded,appley and silky, we made it still and bottled into wine bottles,
it is almost a cross between a wine and cider... :drunk:

i made it in 5 gallon batches when the apple juice was cheap..
and have managed to keep quite a few in storage...

I never expected this Crap to be any good CIDRE for gods sake & Belgian Cidre, I wasn't aware The Belgians were known for even making CIDER, Brittany and Normandy parts of France yes but not Belgium, I Think the nearest Belgium Gets to Cider apart from this new crappy product Is Lambic Fermented Beers.

Now I have said all that I'm sure someones going to come along and prove me wrong

UP

I like a good rough westcountry scrumpy. I remember getting realy drunk at a race meeting at Castle Combe in Wiltshire on something straight from a local farm. It was behind the bar in an orange plastic barrel and when poured looked like Orange Juice. Tasted fantastic..... apparently I was wondering around the paddock bar at 1am showing people pictures of my dog on my phone saying "have you seen my dog dog" :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Happy Days............

 

[dennisking]

Going to the west country to spend a week getting pissed on scrumpy was a right of passage amongst my friends when I was a teenager, many years ago. Used to buy it from farmhouses, .25p a gallon. Just wish I could remember it better, have photos of places I can't remember, happy days.

 

[artyb]

ive had the orange stuff from a barrel under the bar in axbridge near chedder...loverly stuff ... :clap:

 

[hypnoticmonkey]

I've gotta say...

I really like Stella Cidre!

I bought 12 bottles of it to provide me with some bottles for my TC and getting through them was an absolute pleasure!

Each to their own, I suppose...

 

[Archtronics]

Cheaper and so much nicerr :)

 

[Hawks]

Cheaper and so much nicerr :)

+1 to that :thumb:

Thatchers Cheddar Valley is orange and dangerously drinkable at around 6% - my old local used to serve it throughout the summer

 

[eggman]

Stella Cidre has issued a product recall (12 pack i think) because of danger of exploding bottles :shock:
Edit; Old thread i know just thought i'd warn people
