Alcohol

Besides their raw power and political sleuth, Menthell men and women like to relax and party with one of the many sorts of cider. Most farm ciders are just named from the family name, farm name or area, but some have what can almost be described as a "product name", which include:

  • Cider Daze - Common cider made from the Daze Apple, which is popular to grow as the trees use less water, has smaller fruit but very tiny appleseed and flowers twice per season. It doesn't have a particular grower but is used by a variety of farms. Its name can sometimes also be used to describe "cider of no particular taste that will get you drunk".
  • Dickens's Cider - Expensive high brow cider
    • Cream n Cider - Small amount of Dickens's Cider with some Cream ale mixed in
  • Cherry Pop - Sweet with a hint of cherry
  • Hard and Easy to Swallow - Strong cider
  • Cummins Cider
  • First time in Cider
  • Hop in Cider - dry hopped, dry cider
  • Suicider
  • Homicider
  • Hot Red Snapper 'n Cider - A cinnamon flavored cider.
