No. That's a different good deal. What I posted here was a discounted price to buy Westons Cider 20l boxes. I rather like old Rosie so that's why I mentioned that one. Old Rosie is not Hawkidge. If you prefer hawkridge then enjoy.
My deal is good for those who like Westons Cider and like getting 20l boxes delivered.

Sorry don't see this as a good deal at all.
It would be decent if it was 20% off £46.60.
So normal selling price is £58 for a Bag in a Box,would make more sense to buy the 2 ltr flagons from Tesco at £5 a pop.
10 x 5=£50 yeah its £3.40 more,but you don't have to drink it within 6 weeks,and you have 10 glass flagons which are perfect if you decide to make your own cider someday
Old Rosie only at Tescos *

Cheers OP - bought two for the weekend.

Its a good deal because it's cheaper and it's delivered for free. Tesco for me is 15 miles away.
Guess you missed my follow up-could have saved yourself nearly a fiver...
And yes I could empty this myself in 2/3 nights,not everyone drinks heavily though

But yeah for the people who are already too drunk to read other comments properly,Westons don't do good deals,at least not via their website.Who in their right mind would buy 3 2ltr bottles of Old Rosie for £24.50

I wish it was cheap, you can pick it up for about £60 I think, we found it in a lovely little farm shop in Bournemouth, hundreds of ciders, it was heaven!

Yeah I often wish I lived nearer the south coast to feed my cider habit,limited range up here in Scarborough :smiley:
Good that places are now including delivery, sure it was over £60 delivered 2 years ago.

Is this really such a good deal?
After all, you can get a 2 litre bottle of Hawksridge from ASDA for £2.04 = £1.02 a litre. So, 20 litres of Hawksridge would be just £20.40 - making £46.60 for 20 litres of Old Rosie seem relatively expensive.

You're seriously comparing Hawksridge to Old Rosie?
If that's the case, you can surely buy the likes of Strongbow much cheaper. Or go the whole way and stock up on Frosty Jacks, White lightning etc..........

Hmm Interesting.
Though I don't agree with the rebranding, what's all this "Stan's" and "Craft Cider" all about.
Never heard the term 'Craft' replacing 'Real' in Cider. :neutral_face:
Though if it keeps the young 'uns interested that can only be a good thing.:stuck_out_tongue:

Got a few bottles of Old Rosie through prime now.
Had never heard of it so wasnt expecting much.
Really nice cider, went down a treat.

Sad thing is people don't know the difference, I once asked in a bar what 'real ciders' they had, he reeled off a load of weird 'fruity ciders' they were awful!

I've had that, but I guess if you don't understand what cider really is it makes sense. Also in a bar once where they said they had Strongbow on draught or the premium cider was bottled Magners, they are both ciders by name but premium was stretching it a bit! What bugs me is when they sell proper ales but still don't understand that Recorderlig isn't a proper cider, surely if you know beer can vary massively you'd know cider does too?
Opening post
I think this works out at about £1.30 a pint..

Now Thatcher's Cheddar Valley on the other hand goes down an absolute treat. :wink:
Although I had a weirdly clear pint of it the other night
