Now here's an interesting poll... No option for me though...
In stock at the moment I've got a few bottles of Gaymers - quite light, sweet taste; some Bulmers (count depends upon when you read this) - stronger flavour, more of a bitter edge; and a couple of bottles of Magners knocking around too - I'd say it's somewhere between the previous two, pretty full flavour, balanced in bitter/sweet; and I'd say it's probably my favourite - it's considerably more expensive to buy in bulk than the other two though!
...Oh yeah, and I've a stock of Carlsberg in there too (amongst other tipples)!
Regards,
Rob.

Q.Why is cider known as bulmers in ireland and magners everywhere else?
A. Bulmers is originally an English company, and is the largest cider maker in the world. It sells its cider in the UK mostly under its brand names such as Strongbow and Woodpecker.
Its Irish arm, which produced cider for sale in Ireland under the Bulmers name, de-merged from it many years ago but continued to have rights to the Bulmers name in Ireland. They aren't allowed to use it in England (Bulmers UK reserve that right), so they use the Magners name here.
"Bulmers Ltd of Clonmel, Ireland is not connected with HP Bulmers Ltd of Hereford, UK. Bulmers Original Vintage Cider produced by Bulmers Ltd of Clonmel, Ireland is sold outside the Republic of Ireland under the name Magners Original Irish Cider." - from the Magners website.
Which is irrelevant to me as cider tastes
