Total first keg refreshment

Strongbow Dark Fruits inhabits a special part of my mind palace. The room marked ‘Tinnies that are drinkable at room temperature.’ There aren’t many inhabitants, that and Stella, so you could say it’s got a pretty exclusive door policy.

Imagine the joy upon reading this tweet. Admittedly not on Valentine’s day, that would be sad, but this bleary-eyed morning has been made a lot more enjoyable.

No longer will the day festival attendee be bound to carrying eight individual tinnies, stuffed in pockets and orifices. A keg will be arriving, some time before Easter (cheers Strongbow how unambiguous.)

If you don’t like Dark Fruit, the brand also revealed they’ll be releasing kegs of normal cider, although why you would want to drink that, I don’t know. Both will be available in major supermarkets.

And I’m just going to finish on this, for posterity.
