As jamie said its the same stuff, made in the same place!

tastes like lucozade mixed with medicene imo, rank fad drink.

It's an odd colour for Cider too. It's an alcopop, but it's been branded as a cool adults drink

For some reason we sell both Magners and Bulmers now... haven't got a clue why.
Like someone said they're both made by Bulmers. Just different names for the same thing.
We do sell Bulmers at £1.95 a bottle on Mondays though, and Magners at the usual £2.95

tbh, i've been drinking a lot more Strongbow recently. It's a good starter drink when you're feeling like crap.
Never been a fan of Magners or Bulmets tbh, fashwaa drink.

Strongbow! Hereford is the home of Bulmers, so I have to drink strongbow to support the local produce (plus i like it ) Woodpeckers is also ok on very rare occasions but too sweet for normal drinking, magners is Irish and shite. (although it tastes OK )
