We've been brewing zyder in zummerzet since before records began.

This is particularly good, if you can find it.

Is that a "hard cider"??

@farmerman,

I don't know what you mean by that. It's scrumpy, it's pretty powerful, no other country imports that.

I had my first real rough cider (from a wooden barrel) in Salisbury in a pub where I'd stayed with my German and Scottish friends over night.

Thankfully, we only had to drive a couple of miles south the other day

@Walter Hinteler,

At this pub, locally known as Eli's, they serve pints of cider with a shot of Vimto.

"HARD" is our term for some ciders with alcohol. Most iers sold in the fall are mostly sugary non aloholic soft drinks. So the one you showed above in the platic jug was an alcohol beverage?? . We only see really small "airline galley " whiskeys in plastic containers.

2 countries separated by a common language. Does SCRUMPY mean "contains alcohol"?

@farmerman,

It's a rough cider, more alcoholic than the usual, typically produced locally through natural fermentation.

We have several artsy ciders made by the microbreweries, too yeasty for me. I do like the more filtered ones like Angry Orchard Granny SMith.
Alc is about 5% . I treat myself to one every few weeks.

Here's a good guide on alcohol content: http://getdrunknotfat.com/alcohol-content-of-beer/. In my youth, my favorite used to be Grey Goose. Now, it's red wine.

That's what we call cider.

Scrumpy is a particularly potent strain popularised in the West country with recipes, and varieties of trees, going back millennia.

The one above is from a particular brewery that's a bit out of the way and achieved celebrity status in its own right.

Lots of foodies and celebrity chefs have visited. Yet you still have to go there yourself if you want some. It's not in the shops.

I used to go there when my parents first moved to Somerset. You get given a selection of ciders to drink and only pay for what you're taking away in said plastic container. Usually contains a gallon. Is that how you take your cider on airlines, by the gallon?

@izzythepush,

who said anything about cider on airlines. My comment was if that stuff was alcoholic , does it still get sold in a gallon plastic milk jug??

Youve answered me. Apparently you bring your own containers.

Remember theres an entire half of the planet that doesnt understand your vernacular. I watch some Brit tv on Netflix and the neat thing is that often the subscripts make the point that most of the UK language forms is in your use of adjectives.

@farmerman,

Your use of the phrase "airline galleys," is what set me off.

I like the idea of you settling down into your seat and ordering a gallon of cider just as you set off.

I suppose you could bring your own containers, I've never thought that far ahead.

A few weeks ago I took an American friend to Cheddar, we didn't have time to go to Wilkins so I got some of this in one of the many gift shops.

Beer Waste Saves Montana Town $1 Million On Water Treatment

Quote:

As America's craft beer industry continues to boom, the waste it generates can pose challenges for sewer systems. But if it's used in the right spot, in the right amount, it's potentially beneficial and can actually save wastewater treatment plants money.

In Bozeman, Mont., the Water Reclamation Facility treats more than 6 million gallons of water every day from sinks, showers, toilets — really anything that goes down a drain. That includes liquid waste from more than 10 breweries in this city of nearly 50,000.
