Anyone drink warm cider?

Not warm, I guess, but room temperature. I noticed the cold ones lose a lot of carbonation and have a more dulled down flavor. I think I prefer drinking them at room temperature. Anyone else?

I prefer my cider chilled to 45F or so, But it is still very tasty at room temp.

The Irish bar I frequent has Magners on tap. Not room temp but certainly not cold. I have had warm, not hot, apple wine in the winter. It's good!

I'm doing some winter camping this weekend and I was gonna bring a half gallon to heat up on the fire... Think it would be ok? My cider is 16% an has has a bit of rum in her.

45 degrees preferred. But I enjoy any temperature.

Don't heat it up too much or it won't be 16% anymore.

At home we use a crockpot

Ya I don't know if that would work the same on an open fire

Yum.. 16% warmed up by the fire should keep you toasty out there.
I have had more than a few cups of hot mulled cider with couple shots of rum in it.
