I fucking love Cider. I drank alot of it last night while playing MW2 and then watching Sabres beat the Canadiens in a game they had no place winning, but getting the 2 points anyway. Then I slept great. And that was Sainsbury's Strong Dry Cider, which by Cider standards, is shit. But still, it was greater than drinking lager.

Cider's fucking great.

Wonder what will happen to Magners, surely most of that price is profit rather than duty.

That was the point I was (badly) trying to make earlier. It shouldn't really effect the prices in pubs very much Cider has hardly been taxed in years gone by so it should only really effect the profit margins for the brewers.

We're lucky really, Europe wants cider to be taxed the same as wine because they are both from fruit. So cider has really been lucky to escape heavy taxation for so long.
