Hi,
Just moved to Switzerland on 28/7/07, Wife has been here for one year.
I just have one question, quite an important one.
Where can I buy Strongbow cider (in cases), Wifes supply has been exhausted.
Many thanks

I think they have it in the Nelson, or Lion Pub. But these venues sell Staropramen, so its a while since Ive tasted it. Discouraged also by the recent crap TV ads.

You can also buy it at Coop. I'm warning you though, the last time I bought it it tasted like ass. And I love cider (i know, I know), but it tasted nothing like it does on tap, kinda funny tasting.

Drinks of the world in Zurich Main Station sell Bulmers, Strongbow and Kopparberg ciders, used to be a big Strongbow fan myself, but addicted to Bulmers now (i know they are the same company  just Bulmers original seems to taste much better over here than strongbow.

I bought some the other day at the Coop at Stadelhofen (my favorite Coop, btw). They also might have it at the Coop at Bellevue as well. | Quote: | | | | | Got any coops in mind around zurich city centre?? nice to relax with for the last of the summer sun. | | | | | |

Thanks! | | | | | Some Coop shops will carry Bulmers and Koparberg, but it is hit or miss to find one that does.

Just searched the same Q almost 4 years on. Yes I'm aware of the 2 mouthfull bottles available at Coop and more recently the addition of larger bottles of Bulmers but I would also like to buy by the crate and certainly not for 4.50 per bottle. 24 cans for a tenner last time I bought it in Tesco. Are there any wholesalers selling pint cans??
