I picked up a 6 pack of cider at the store when I was coming home.

Hornsby Amber Draft.

It's pretty tasty, Any reccomendations? I noticed they had about 7 or 8 different brands. I think I'll try Hardcore next.

1. Mmm, cider...

I like a nice dry cider like Strongbow (more like a Granny Smith), rather than sweeter ones like Magner's (more like a Red Delicious). What's Hornsby like?

[JVS]

2. I have no frame of reference to compare it with. It tastes like champagne and apples

I got it because it was $6.49 and the other brands were $7.49

3. If it has a champagne flavour, it's probably dry, and I'd probably like the tartness.

You can't go far wrong at that price, can you? Hell, or even $7.49. Here in Ontario, a six-pack would run you almost twice that.

4. I like Woodchuck Amber

I've tried Hornsby, and it was pretty good as well.

I miss the CiderJack that i used to buy in upstate NY years ago... that one was the best.

[JVS]

7. Just keep up the good work

[taterguy]

8. How good is my work gonna be if I'm shit faced on amber draft?

9. Cider packs a punch, all right. nt

[JVS]

10. Isn't that how the best work gets done?

[JVS]

11. OK. Now I've bought a new variety. Hornsby's crisp apple.

This one tastes more like green apples. It's not quite as strong, which I think also makes it sweeter, So it's both sourer and sweeter. Not as mellow though
