Last night I bought 4 cans of Bulmer's finest English apple flavoured strongbow cider drink. Eager to quaff the first can I didn't allow it a huge amount of time to chill - in fact, sitting in my garage it probably warmed up, as the garage door acts somewhat like a radiator in this recent heat.
Alas - enjoying my evening treat I was somewhat dismayed to find it tasted not unlike bar line cleaner (bleachy) it was subtle, and I had been drinking previously some lovely Tesco's own brand ginger beer, so I ignored it.
I've drunk many a pint with line cleaner, never did me no harm mister. So all 4 cans were drunk, all tasted slightly wrong.
So being the pedant I am, I decided to call up Bulmers, where, in my mind I had probably invented a problem, to be told, that my specific batch (that makes it sound like the knock me up some special) was indeed not tainted with bleach, but too much of one ingredient.
If that ingredient turns out to be rat, then I shan't be too pleased, but I look forward to the large crate of compensation that should be winging it's way to me in the near future. Gut rot tastic.

I like the chemical cocktail! I don't think it was a standard response, he was most concerned, hard to feign on a daily/hourly basis.
