Don't I wish, Wolf.  Can't get scrumpy here.  We have strongbow and some of the bars have cider, but it isn't popular here at all.  In fact, most Americans don't even know about hard cider.  I ate dinner too late to wash it down with anything but a large ice water.

AAAhhhhh what a shame, I used to drink Strongbow when I first came here, but have not had any for years. I still remember the old raw scrumpy cider, powerful stuff to the unwary traveller.  Have you ever tried a Black Velvet ?

 

 Guinness + Cider

No, but it sounds yummy.  Nothing smoother than Guinness.

We have a Canadian whiskey here called Black Velvet.

Reminds me of a song:

Excellent, Wolf!  So are they an Aussie Band or an Irish band then?

Here are a couple more about Irish deportations to Australia.

The Dubliners are very Irish Ruth, and a great old band.
