Hey to the gang that knows everything.

I have been asked twice now about some new cider that is in town. Can anybody tell me about it????

Is it just an apple juice type of drink or does it have some ummmpppph to it ????

They said that its not a Lotus or Rimping kind of thing.

Be interested if anyone knows more about it..... Good cider brings back some very painful thoughts, but now 50 yrs later the pain has worn off.....

Thanks for any input guys.

Its possibly this one brewed in Pattaya: http://www.tropicalcider.com/

You mean in Cha-am.

had some at the un irish pub a couple of weeks ago. it's not too bad, bit dry blackthornish.

There is only one Cider worthy of drinking and that is Strongbow

That's the stuff. It's in the UN Irish Pub and Miguels Express, and probably in the other Miguels. It's in a number of other bars also, but I don't know which ones. If I remember correctly it is 5.5% alcohol, so comparable to the local beer in strength. They make both a sweet and a dry version.

It's called Tropical Nuclear Cider. There's a sweet and a dry version of it.

If you get in touch with Pedr at The Olde Bell he will be able to point you in the right direction with regards to getting it as he stocks it.

Sorry.... I checked the link,,,, better late than never

Is it the Tropical Nuclear Cider ???

I see that Pedr mentioned something about new laws that say what ???

You cannot advertise that you have it or can't discuss it, or have to be hush hush about it.

Is it only pertaining to this cider?

Couldn't agree more! Wish i could find the Stowford Press here in CM. Then again, maybe it's best I don't lol.

Strongbow & Dry Blackthorne are a very poor substitute for this brand, in fact they aren't even in the same league!

I tried the Cider, It is a bit "pricey" but it does kick arse, makes you feel like you are 14 again!

Got to get the price down though.

When you say pricey,,,,,,, give what may be an average selling price

Thanks

Bars are buying it for between 50 - 55 baht a bottle. (Small bottles)

I have seen some bars selling it for as much as 95 baht.

Getting it to about 70 ish, would be a good start.

i dont know I think Bulmers has them beat. Unfortunately it's impossible to find bulmers here in Surin. Falang connection used to have it, no more. Really miss it, dont think we will get this new cider up here either not the same without Martin. (RIP Martin)

Maybe I will have to make a trip to cha am, good excuse to go to the beach for a little holiday.

They won't do that WP in case you ID yourself and get a discount....then their profit margin would be too low.

As I see it some places are caught between a rock and a hard place. Places without discount will be able to mark it up cheaper than those that offer discount.....I think.

Got a case of the TNC delivered late yest eve. It is cooling as we speak.

Looks good enough to drink.

Like a kid at Christmas, can't wait.....

Proof, it does not take much to make an old man happy

Lunch time should be just about right

Wouldn't say that. Stowford Press and Strongbow are very similar and two great Hereford products (), though I also prefer Stowford. Poor substitutes would be something like Woodpecker or Scrumpy, but each to their own.

had the cider in a few bars,makes a change from the other drinks.i think it will become popular over time.roughly 100 baht a bottle.sexy pom pui bar is 90 baht

Well Gonzo nothing wrong with your new thin apple sauce or the price. The Pork Chop with your new sauce could well be my new Thursday tradition.
