To celebrate the brief return of forum members Barrel Smuggler and Chowie to Bristle from the US of A, Summer, cider, anything else anyone can think of, it has been decided that a cider crawl should take place in Bristol on 22nd July. We will be starting at the King William on King Street for food at around 1pm and the details of the onward route will be posted here once it has been decided.
Naturally, all cider drinkers (London based, Sheffield based, internationally based but no welsh) are welcome and any suggestions about possible venues would be good.
Be there or be gay

Not really wanting to become gay i'll obviously have to come along.
Pub suggestions have gotta be ones with gardens i suppose (if its sunny), so the ones we did on the summer crawl last year could be good... and when it gets a bit chillier later WETHERSPOONS WETHERSPOONS WETHERSPOONS (see other post)!

Thanks for the invite, but you know all us Southerners are gay (oh, and I'll be at work and can't get the day off, but that's obviously just a smokescreen).
I'm sure you'll have a great time. Look forward to hearing about the carnage afterwards. |

JJJ must certainly be sampled. I did have a bad pint of it the other week though, it was a bit old and tasted vinegary.

Yes it's got to be done at some point, its tradition, and if we visit the likes of Orchard, Avon Packet, etc, it'll be an insult to the Coronation not to call in.
Will any of the wassailers be joing us Chowie?

Here is a quick idea I came up with for a route, it includes some sunny afternoon pubs, THREE ferry rides, a possible 12 different ciders, Wetherspoons, food-refuelling stops, suitable meeting place for the after-work-joiners and at least one potential fight stop:
12:45 King William
13:50 Ferry from Centre to…
14:10 Nova Scotia
15:00 Avon Packet
15:40 Coronation
16:20 Orchard
17:00 Ferry from SS Great Britain to…
17:10 The River
17:50 Ferry from Centre to…
18:05 The Mardyke
18:45 Hope & Anchor
19:30 Her Manos (on triangle)
20:15 Berkeley
21:00 Bunch of Grapes
21:45 Commercial Rooms
22:30 Horts
23:00 Arc Bar
What do you reckon?

Evil. If anyone is left standing after that lot they deserve a cider medal

Survived just about, the route was nothing like above but it was still the messiest cider-crawl in history.
Impossible to review it as i remember very little.
I would also like to exclusively announce my retirement from drinking cider
