a strange one indeed! I have tried it and i didnt really like it, its like a very cheap nasty wine, (No offence to anyone who likes it) most people I knew only drank it because it was easy to get drunk on. But gay as this may sound if you mix it with the original west coast cooler (the clear one) its actually very nice. Spot the student! Why do you ask?

Made with the finest of monk toenail clippings, nicely chilled yum. ??? ???

Just wondering why you have brought up the subject of house wine? Is one planning of using it as festival fodder sometime soon??

you should it effects you like no other beverage.
It's aslo a great carry out if weight is an issue.................I'd rather carry 2 bottles of tonic than 12 tins of beer any day!!!!!

Beware fellow travellers Buckfast will give the inards a good cleaning if you get my meaning. :-X
