Ice Dragon Cider

7.5%, 2.l Bottle £1.99 From Your Local Stockist

The Bottle Says: "White Cider ALC 7.5% VOL EXTRA STRENGTH"

MrGoatse Says: Following in the footsteps of the almost legendary Frosty Jacks and White Lightning comes this new contender. Ice Dragon appears to be the standard white cider - it comes in a blue plastic bottle, its 7.5%, and it costs less than 3 quid for a few litres of the muck. But will Ice Dragon take the crown of cheap trampjuice cider?

Upon first opening my chilled bottle of Ice Dragon I noticed the usual chemical smell that you would get from its cousin, White Lightning. I thought I was in for a treat. But the taste - oh my god this stuff is disgusting. I had accidentally chilled my Ice Dragon (true tramps should drink this stuff at room temperature) which took the initial hit off the drink - but the after-taste is rotten - kind of like a mixture of Domestos and tramp piss.

Usually with cheap ciders the more you drink the better it gets. I wish I could say this about Ice Dragon, but I can't. From the first taste it's bad, and it only gets worse. Whilst doing this review I was wishing for a good old bottle of Frosty Jacks but that review had already been written... Anyway, out of the 2 litres I only managed to drink about 1.5 litres and I didn't even feel that hammered after it.

In Conclusion: This cider is minging. I pity the fool who even considers buying it. It's supposed to be 7.5% but I had trouble getting pissed on it. The foul taste makes you want to rinse your mouth out after every gulp. Anyway onto the scores:

Taste : Its 'orrible. 3/10
Smell : Respectable 8/10
Drunkfactor : Poor 3/10
Hangover : unmeasured 0/10
Price : 1.99 for 2Lt 5/10

Overall: 3/10 Poor show Ice Dragon sort out that taste and maybe you'll rival Frosty Jacks one day.
