that stuffs all rubbish Sunna, White lightning is the worst!! what you need is a few quarts of INCH's cider from Devon, or some of the Somerset farm cider, then you will taste the difference, the commercial stuff is full of chemicals and other crap.[/b]

When I was stationed at Maidstone I used to drink in a pub called The Minstrel that used to sell local produced real ales, local fruit and veg wines and a cider from a farm near a village called Biddington. The cider was in a 40 pint plastic barrel plonked on the end of the bar with a small tap near the bottom. The landlord would not sell it in anything other than half pints though he would sell you a pint of snakebite made with it. This stuff was so raw I swear you were picking bits of apple out of your teeth after drinking it. Mind you, this was 25 years ago and the pub is now called Ye Olde Flying Pig and I've no idea what drinks it serves now.

you can still get some of the real farm cider but its getting harder and harder to find places who stock the genuine article, they are getting less and less, not surprising when most people drink limp wristed wine at home.

I finally made the plunge and have 2 gallons fermenting in the back room right now.
We will wait and see how this works out.
The recipe I used is so simple even I could not mess it up.
