Havin' a 'Bo...
 
I was excited tonight when hubby, for the first time ever, caller a Strongbow a 'Bo.

Despite being surrounded by numerous wonderful wineries and some great beer producers, I still love me a 'Bo!

Must be a local thing to you - they'm all just be zoiders to me :lol:

I've managed to get my USC fiancee to start spelling words with "u's" correctly, even when she's doing stuff at work in Utah :thumbsup:

Reminds me of the time the wife proudly brought home some "cider" in Indiana. Wasn't alcoholic. :thumbdown:

Does Strongbow ever involve apples in its production? :unsure:

Me neither, and I'm a west country girl. It's more a case of "zider I up landlord"

I still haven't worked out the distinction between American cider and apple juice. It seems that you only have hard cider, not hard apple juice.

Cider is what some marketing genius came up with so they could charge a premium for apple juice.

It's lumpy, from fresh, pressed apples and unfiltered...

Trader Joes have a couple of okay, cheap hard cider, bit like Woodpeckers though...but cider just reminds me of snakebites and pissed up school kids :D

My love of cider was born on a Ferry to Ireland from Wales...Magners it was! Now I love Strongbow and so happy to get it here in the USA!
