I've been drinking a lot of ciders, I'm not the biggest beer fan.

You might try Crispin, it seemed to not be too sweet, Stella has their "Cidre" out now which is beery. I like Strongbow a lot, Angry Orchard Traditional Dry is not very sweet, that might be worth a try if you can get it, its an Ohio Brewery.

I don't like sweet alcohol... gives me a worse hangover and just generally makes me feel icky.

I agree, but Cider is a far cry from Grand Marnier.

I was offered a glass of apricot brandy the other night. I could barely choke it down it was so sweet.

I like ciders. Althought one night I was out drinking with an older friend, and he called me a bitch when I ordered one to pregame with. So I try not to drink it around other people. :)

People make fun of me for drinking cider but I don't see how choking down bud light makes you more of a man.

I do drink Strongbow the most. It's the driest and least sweet I've found. Rock Creek is ok, but on the sweet side.

I feel a bit more manly now that you fags admitted to drinking it with a choice... lol JK.

Besides a beer every now and again, vodka and tonic is my drink of choice.

I bring yogurt and baby carrots to work to snack on during the day. So far, I haven't had any takers to my offer of the corpses and feces of billions of microorganisms for a snack. Opinions seem to differ when said corpses and feces come in bottles or cans, however.

Looks like a kids toy, but its great for turning paper medium into labels. I use it all the time to label things.

So, the mead was tasty, so tasty, that I decided to make more... alot more, I thought a 6 gallon carboy would suffice, but I ended up going nuts with it, and now I've got somewhere around 15-20 gallons of the stuff in the works. Should be be about 75-100 bottles like the ones shown above... whoops...
