Here are some other suggestions to try that I like:<br /><br />Crispin - comes in 3 regular varieties, plus some limited editions. Very high quality and sophisticated.<br /><br />Strongbow - when I find cider on tap around here, it's almost always Strongbow. "English" style cider, that's fairly dry.<br /><br />Blackthorn - similar to Strongbow<br /><br />Original Sin - somewhere between Strongbow and Woodchuck.<br /><br />Here are a few others that I don't like as well, but others might:<br /><br />Hornsby's<br />Hardcore<br />Woodpecker<br />AceUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10813365042401015041noreply@blogger.com
