I'm gonna get the ball rolling by bringing some locally produced cider....
this isn't your Blackthorn or Natch... this is real Farmhouse stuff 8)
Last time I asked, it was over 8%...but it's variable...mostly upwards. :blink:
If you let me know if you want some by pm, I'll make sure you get to try some.( if you want gallons I'll have to charge, But a few pints..np)
what local produce can you bring? (and it doesn't have to be intoxicating/halucinogenic) {but preferably!}

Maybe Apfelkorn would be better, although it's German but it's really tasty schnaps. The real deal ofcourse: Berentzen.
Does anyone have a clue what them Dutchies are waffling on about? Apfelkorn, whats that, a breakfast cereal? ;)

:ranting: It has 18% alcohol in it and apfel is German for Apple.
BERENTZEN - Apfelkorn
Description:
The Original Berentzen ApfelKorn set a new standard in soft liqueur drinks and has a tremendous international success.
Sun-ripened apples give the distinct and unrivalled taste to this marvellous product which is consumed in many countries by people of all ages.

And DM, I prefer Apfelkorn over Jagermeister (although jagermeister is also quit good).

I've had jagermeister - why didn't you just say that's what it was like!!!! ;) :D

No No german apple juice :whistle:
Apfel Korn is best served after it has spent about 4 hours in the freezer..... :norty:

I hate you all, sounds like its gonna be a beast of a LAN and you picked the one weekend in the year that I'm not in the country!
Is anyone coming from Glasgow, if so I think that a cutural exchange using Buckfast "wine" may be needed.
Whitey you aren't far away are you?
Lived in Glasgow for 4 years and sampled some........
Imagine Ribena, antifreeze and rohypnol mixed together and you'd be a fraction of the way there.

The last time I had cookies from Holland was from a coffee shop in Amsterdam. Needless to say it took me about 3 days to recover :roflmao:

ok ok perhaps it just felt like a few days :)
My g/f lives next door to buckfast abbey where Buckfast Tonic is produced. Incidently that's in devon, so technically you can't bring it if you're from Glasgow as it's not local ;)
well I've booked the rooms...so I'm definately coming.
I'll pick up the cider a couple of days before I come...it should keep well for a week or so if kept cool and unflustered :D ....so don't plan on stocking up! DRINK YOUNG!
and so far I got Pen down for 2-3 gallons :whistle:
and Duvel & family down for 1.
I reckon I can fit in about 8 in total so book em in early 8)
I shall bring perry for meself :ph34r:
I just checked and it's £5.50 odd a gall (5 litres)...it says 6% on the label, but don't believe it
default is "dry" unless you ask otherwise...sweet is undrinkable afaik...trust me, dry is good 8)
happy days ;)
pm me to order yours

That's where I got married (the Abbey that is, not at your g/f's and not in the Tonic factory)! And fwiw the 'basic' fortified wine before they add the herbs is much nicer than the tonic imo - the late Abbot used to supply us with bottles (any plastic screwtop bottle he could get hold of) of basic :cheers:
TL.
Crazy, it is a small world! Yeah you've gotta love the old Abbey, they sell the main supply of alcohol for all Scottish drunks, and at the same time advocate a tee-total existance and put up posters to AA! :D :D
Lovely place to have a wedding though! So you still live around there?

Never lived in Buckfastleigh myself, but SWMBO's family had roots there. I still buy the honey when I'm down there - it's one of my favourites.

Good stuff you brought Blunt. I thought it was for trying only, didn't knew you were bringing a jerrycan for me :blink:. I couldn't bring it with me though. Customs probably would have thought it was rocket fuel that I was trying to steal from the airport. Rizzy had quit a hard time with it aswell ;).
I hope you guys liked the stroopwafels and Apfelkorn.
Greetz, Pete
EDIT: The cheese was (young) Edammer cheese, 40+.
loved the cheese Duv...

I shoulda caught you early saturday really..but I likes me bed 2 much :blush:

I've changed me mind Blunt. It was a moment of weakness that drove me to turn down the second gallon.
Fantastic stuff - just like mamma used to make (or was it someone else - the memory goes with scrumpy)
