You've probably never heard of it, but I tried this thing called Magners today...

[Sagerian]

So, I was at the pub and tried this drink I'd never heard of before called a Magners or something... Very good indeed.. It was great the first time but I needed to make sure it wasn't a fluke see... So I had to try it again, and of course had to try it another time after that.

Now I'm 8 minutes away from hosting a meeting, and I'm well and truly twisted.

But WOW...

[The InnFORCEr]

even better with a bit of ice (the frozen variety) on a hot summers day!

[Darren]

Definitely even better with ice...

BTW - Don't listen to Exile, I'm yet to have a hangover worth talking about after a night of only Magners.


/me waits for the "Yeah, but a night on the grog is only 3 drinks for you!" comments from the peanut gallery...

[Sagerian]

I can't imagine this would give you a rocking hangover.. Got a nice buzz going on and I think I'll sleep well tonight.

[The InnFORCEr]

also free Magners taste much better hey Coach

[Evie]

It's great stuff, I have so far converted my dad to it and I just put some in the fridge

[The InnFORCEr]

What are they charging you for a 12 pack Evie??

[jargan83]

sounds like it could be worth trying

What are they charging you for a 12 pack Evie??

Umm I got it from Dan Murphys... Mum was paying so I didn't look too closely but I think it was about $55-60 and as we also picked up a few other dozen of champagne I didn't notice it in the total either.

[jargan83]

i'll try it before i commit to buying a carton

magners actual name from ireland is bulmers, but they had legal issues. if your in melbourne on a monday night a pub named pugg mahones sells it for $3 a pint.... thats no joke. guinness too. they have $6 parma and chips then too

a very cheap night out

[blueandblack]

Pugg Mahones is at the Northern end of Hardware Lane in Melbourne. Hardware Lane is 3 blocks long (having walked the full length recently, I know. Also had a number of pints of Guinness at Puggs)

I think you may be missing something there felix has Magners by the bottle and Bulmers on tap They are 2 different brews AFAIK.

Edit: Well there ya go "Bulmers Original Vintage Cider is a brand of cider produced in Ireland. To prevent confusion with the English cider of the same name, it is sold outside of the Republic of Ireland as Magners Original Irish Cider." check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulmers...lic_of_Ireland)
