ziderman Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 26th of this month is what I've been told by someone that was at a meeting with Gaymers last night. If you're on Facebook go to "The New Bad Taste Of Blackthorn" tis on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLYMRED Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Just a quick one, i have heard from a friend that there are rumours of old Blackthorn coming back! Has anyone else heard this or am I getting my hopes up? Too late for me. I wrote my letter of complaint when they watered it down. My local binned it and replaced it with Thatchers which has taken off big time with the regular cider drinkers. Even better Natch has started to filter into some of the supermarkets down here. Have they found that the yuppies and the like have moved onto something more trendy again - hope so. Perhaps they should have stayed loyal to the real cider drinkers and not pander to people who put ice cubes into there glass first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon atyeo is my dad Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Not a attack on your good selves but I don't get the fuss about blackthorn it was crap then and is even worse now and never has been real cider. Get yr selfs down the A38 to thatchers and buy yr selfs some real stuff out the barrel or might I suggest the orchard pub voted the best pub there range of cider is something to truly behold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zider_I_Up_Landlord Posted March 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 I like thatchers but when my local has only blackthorn, strongbow or magners, I think old blackthorn coming back is a big bonus! The question was not posed as a debate on the best cider I was merely interested! Thanks ziderman for answering the question! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
