So I would. :D
Do you know, i think there's a good chance that the C&C group make both bulmers and mi-wadi.
Amazing
You know the way Bulmers is Magners in the north, is mi-wadi still mi-wadi there?Quote:

But does it taste the same? Magners isn't as nice as Bulmers.... I blame the water, that's used for the ice. Is fluoridation in operation up there?
magners is the original name.bulmers is the "wrong" name,if there is one.
ice cubes should be thick square ones.i was in liverpool and loadsa places had thin strips of ice cubes.melted too easily.stupid loking too.
while a beer garden,sunny day and aforementioned pint bottle and pint glass of ice is great.erdinger beats itQuote:

its a gimmick to use so that you drink more of it to cure the "thirst" the previous glass has left you with....before you realise it your bottle of robinsons, mi-wadi etc is gone and you're off to buy another one.Quote:

(but they're lovely with a nice cold pint of bud) :cool:
Bulmers' proper name is actually Magners and it is called Bulmers here because they also have a Bulmers Cider in the north & UK made by someone else and it is complete ****.They also have Bulmers in Australia and it is a bit closer to our Bulmers and is known as Bulmers Red Cider but you just can't beat the original which is made by Showerings i think.
can't get magners here - so it's bulmers. And it's pish no matter what name you give it anyway
Jeez working in a pub in the UK can confusing. People give me strange looks when someone asks what cider we have in the pub, i say Bulmers instead of Magners.... and when people ask for a packet of cheese and onion Walkers crisps, often find myself giving them the green packet. (Salt and Vinegar!) weird country....
Yeah tell me about it.I lived in Southgate (N14) for 8 months and worked in a pub called The Rising Sun and they drank some weird sh1t.I had the pleasure of seeing a guy getting stabbed to death outside Holloway tube station.Frightened the bejesus out of me.It's a great city if your young free and single though.
