New cider bar in Loughborough Junction reopens on Fri 19 to Sun 21 May 2017

[alsoknownas]

I think I've still got it somewhere! I'll have a look...

Hopefully it won't be scarf weather later in April though...instead, you could tie it round your head Rambo-style after a few pints

Don't worry too much. I can't have been that attached to it, can I?

I'll buy my own pint, and drink one in memory of Greebo too.

I've let the cider aficionados on the estate know about the imminent re-emergence, too.

And the good Mr Hatter has a very wallet-friendly tariff already

I should be able to keep it to £3.50 a pint - which might allow me to make another tall claim: "cheapest bar in Brixton" ??!?

Greebo was one of our best customers. She grasped the opportunity full-heartedly. I ran out of bottles one day so she turned up with a load of water-tight tupperware boxes for me to fill up with cider and take home - legend.

She loved good cider, good ale and good (i.e. mostly continental) lager, and loved both the idea of the cider bar AND the reality of it. Also inspired her to buy me - as part of my birthday present in 2016 - a mixed case of Worley's cider after sampling some (the Red Hen?) in December!

Reminds me of Greebo buying up about half a dozen bottles of the mulling cider that was on offer.

Any chance of any of Rogers stuff ?

Wilkins Cider - the home of Somerset cider

From deepest darkest Somerset with proper 'silage' notes lol. I try and have a polypin going at home throughout the year (works out at £2.00 per pint). I had to put the current one on its back and allow the co2 out as it had started to ferment again due to the recent warm weather!!!

 

[mellifluous lady]

Yeah sort of - I have a new one in the same style called 'Applesecco'.

Might be able to get the old stuff back for next time in May, they are still making it, so fingers crossed...
