Advantages: Refreshing

Disadvantages: Not a lot of taste

Cider has been given a tough time over the years, what with most youths being seen with a bottle of white lightning tucked under their arms. Some ciders can be really strong and very acidic too, so too much is sometimes a problem.

However, with Bulmers cider, there is a lighter taste that is really refreshing. Since Magners came on the scene a few years ago, the market of cider was rebranded into a cool drink to have with ice on a nice summers afternoon. Bulmers joined the race sometime after, so has always played catch up, but most bars seem to offer both now as an alternative to the run of the mill ciders (strongbow, blackthorn).

If you like your strong ciders or a bit of scrumpy, then you will find this a bit weak tasting and too fizzy, but if you like a refreshing drink for a summers night, then definitely give Bulmers a try.

Summary: Great for a beer garden, not so much for a winter's night in though.
