yup
It's silly but true. It's been quite a while since I last got a dirty look from a barman in Dublin for absent-mindingly ordering Magners

It's not really - don't order Bulmers
I find that's got me through my years of drinking just fine.

It would be easier if Bulmers of Hereford accepted they made shit cider and stopped
and Bulmers of Ireland admitted it's a silly name and changed it to Magners.

I like a pint of Guinness as much as the next half-hearted Irish man

I'm in complete agreement with this remark.

I'm friends with the heiress to the Hereford Bulmers.
