You should be able to find some just about any place that sells beer. Cider prior to prohibition was a household staple. After prohibition, orchards were cut down, due to the "devil nature" of ETOH. After that beer took over to replace it. Prior to prohibition, a glas of cider, meant a glass of fermented hard cider. The term Hard cider is a U.S. term. In England I believe if you ask for a Cider you'll automatically get a hard cider. The best stuff around here is on tap at the bar, but our local Trader Joe's sells ACE brand Hard Cider and Hard Pear Cider (aka Perry). The pear stuff is really good. Just have to watch it, as it slides down like water, but the alcohol will catch up to you." "No matter where you go, there you are!" Steve.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
