Default magners or bulmers?

Last time i went for a drink, I had some one of these but i cant remember which one. I thought for once i'd have a drinky at crimbo.

Which one do you prefer?

By the way, i'm not too keen on lager, it makes me burp and fart at the same time....plus i always feel like a beached whale

its the bubbles in larger that make you bloated, burp n fart, cider will do the same.

get on the ale or the spirits, the less bubbles, the more you will enjoy the night.

I'm not a cider fan Its just the last time i went out for a piss up (about two years ago) I got on to drinking one of the above, and thought it was nice.

I'm just trying to find something nice to drink. That wont get me pissed too quick, so spirits is out of the question.

What lagers do you guys drink??

Cheers

I've an irish friend that'd give you some stick for saying that!
Bulmers in Ireland is the same as our Magners over here, Bulmers only had the trade mark rights for the ROI. So had to change the name for the UK /rest of world market.
Another company Bulmers UK. took the name and used the reputation in Ireland to sell cider over here

I like both but normally go for the bulmers as I have a sweet tooth...

Now I tried 'Rekorderlig' cider the other day in a restaurant:

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Rekord...er/17995543218

I had the normal apple cider and then tried the strawberry/lime one. Both were fooking lovery IMO...just need to find somewhere that sells it now!!!

I haven't tasted either, so for Cider, I'm biased towards Strongbow.
