Facebook post blames RTD taxing
so they're not taxed like beer then?
No, its not beer.
I thought it was cider.
@jv: yes. Which is also NOT beer.
Why would cider be taxed more than beer ?
@jv:
As a beer drinker, I don't care :)

Cider has too low a concentration of alcohol to be considered a fruit wine, so it is classified as an RTD instead, which pays more tax.

Applejacks : Alcohol Volume 5.4%

@jv: Read the article if you don't understand. Last time I checked, cider is not beer and is subject to different excise.

why though, it has similar alcohol to beer…

@jv: Read the article. It is easy to understand.
Also, it's a blend of vodka and cider, so not even cider. And not beer.

It's cider with a little bit of vodka added. It's definitely not blended…
@jv: I'm thinking that it is taxed more because the beer and wine industries don't want Australians to start drinking something else.
you win a cigar… (plus tax)
Tried the ginger one earlier this year. It was alright, but wasn't expecting the vodka.
Don't forget cashrewards…
It'll take the price down by about another $1…
I though I'd give it a try at a tenner. Some thing different.
7%, so about another 70c.
I bought 2 and the cashback is $2.55
Wait and see…..Nothing tagged from CR yet
Edit; 1.27 CR.
Better value to get two, for 2.55 back.
why ?
