Strongbow??? Strongbow???.... How far away from the West Country do they live?

In all seriousness, I asked the question about cider myself ...... El Murphy's - Blackthorn, Natch and probably some soft shite such as Strongbow... There's a fair few more pubs (and shops) around as well...... Hua Hin thankfully serves the "golden Nectar"

Merrydown @ 110 baht in minifarm for a .5 litre bottle. BBills does a good pint at a good price also.

El Murphys does - at least - Old English in cans poured over ice, which was very refreshing and both Westons and Westons Stoweford Press on draught! If everywhere selling cider could get the price down, it would be my tipple of choice in LOS.

Strongbow is brewed in UK by Bulmers (part of the Heineken clan) at their Hertfordshire factory.

Much better brews to be had in Somerset.

That was exactly the point - far better brews..... Kingston Black from the local "scrumpy farm" always a pleasure - although somtimes dificult to remember! :cheers:

I'm pretty sure TNT bar had Strongbow in the fridge but not on draught. If you were to use the bar I'm sure he would be happy to get some in for you if you ask him nicely.

O'Neills have Westons on draught, sometimes they have a price promotion, maybe they have Strongbow also.

they stopped importing strongbow on draft about a year ago.At El Murphys we currently stock westons and stomford english cider @ 150 a pint until 7pm.This month we hope to install Magners draft and include it in our happy 12 hours prices.A lot of bars have bottles of strongbow at about 160 +.

A box of 15 cans of Strongbow for £9 at Sainsbury's today. I was thinking about buying one and taking it over with me to keep in the fridge. I've done this to Goa quite a few times. Would there be any problems doing it to Thailand?

Got to use my 30kg's of baggage allowance up somehow. :cheers:
