3 ltr bottles of Strongbow

[zovirax]

Hi

I have bought 3 ltr bottles of strongbow from londis in Exeter in the past but my brother will not accept the fact they they exist/have existed.

Has anyone else ever bought 3ltr bottles of it?

Thanks

I think i'v had a 3l bottle before.
Google doesnt give much help and tesco.com only sells 2l bottles so i could be mistaken.

Britvic responsible drinking amounts maybe ??

Everythign else comes in 3L especialy store own brands.... 3L man id be ****faced

When I bought it was between 2007 and 2008 so not that long ago.

Doesn't confirm that 3L bottles existed, but still relevant.

I remember some guy living on the streets drinking a 3l bottle... or was that diamond white?

Yes they used to exist, the 3L version was pulled a while back I thought? Infact I thought all 3L ones had to be pulled. We got 50 3L bottles of Frosty Jack's for £50 = epic

Only seen diamond white in 2L

"One three litre plastic bottle of white cider contains almost the full recommended weekly alcohol intake for a male drinker."

ROCK AND ROLL !

I remember selling them when I worked in an off-licence.

I remember playing Edward Ciderhands with those badboys strapped to each wrist. Nothing could possibly be worse than Natalie Porthands though

Yup. See them in the shops close to mine.

I only thought it was tramps that bought that horrible ****.
It tastes like sick and battery acid, just wrong.

To drink cider from a 3 litre bottle you've either got to have no sense of taste (and therefore don't care), an alcoholic, a kid or be freakishly poor. Don't understand it myself.

Why? What possible difference is there between the capacity of containers that leads to such a stereotype?

The only cider sold in them is crap?

Strongbow is borderline.

Else what have you got, own brand cider, frosty jack, white lightning, white diamand, white ace.
All the crap that no self respecting bloke would drink.

I used to buy them too.
They only do the 2/2.5ltr ones now, i cant remember.

Amy Winehands as well.

had a look around and there's no actual proof but there's evidence that 3 litres have existed
