I will family355 but I too have tried many AF reds and none of them are any good. I find AF beers (Lucky Saint especially)family355 said:
@marahouti please do let me know if you find a AF red that doesn't taste like pop...or worse. I did sample quite a few a while ago and couldn't find anything close enough to substitute
a much better alternative and, as I said earlier, AF 'gin' is very acceptable as a mixed drink. I also drink Nosecco sometimes when bubbles are called for or in a pretend Buck's Fizz. Red wine though is off the menu ☹️.
I'm 20/25 please cathybird. Thank you. X3 -
12/21 for me today please!
I am not keen on af wine in general, although it has been a few years since I’ve tried it. Usually far too sweet. I really enjoy af lager tho and tend to have ginger beer or appletise when bubbles are needed 🥂Books read 2023 - 49/754 -

I am at 19 today, which is probably it for this month because I fly out tomorrow and as ever there will be a lot of get-togethers with family & friends while I am away. I'll see how I go though but I "save up" AFDs for holidays so I'm relaxed about just having a nice time while away basically. Not overdoing it though hopefully

Have a great time @cathybird. I'm assuming Australia.😊5
