Boone Farm

A while back I obtained about 50 BF bottles and was reading the ingredient list. They all say apple flavored wine contains no fruit juice. So what do they ferment if there is no fruit juice? Mike

likely sugar, water and nutrient then add in artificial cool-ade type flavors.

So if it's not fermented fruit juice, is it even wine???

It's artificially flavored alcohol.

Interesting.

In some U.S. states, such as Utah, some Boone's Farm products are labeled as malt beverages and not as flavored apple/citrus wine products, as state liquor laws prohibit the sale of wine in grocery and convenience stores.[

Oh my.

My wife will get a KICK out of this one. Boone's used to be her favorite way back at college.

Not even a hint of real ingredients, hilarious!

I was always under the impression that Boones was fancy wine cooler.

Favorite day time drink in college was BF and Grain... Oh how I don't miss blacking out at 2pm

The bottles I have had say flavored beer on them

Do you live in Texas? Looks like it's labeled differently due to different state liquor laws. Texas are the strangest.

I guess I know why my koolade wine taste like BF. Mike

I love the blue flavored one lol

I remember picking up a bottle post-college and noticing it said 'Serve Very Cold' on the label.

I am not a smart man. Do not read this as a friendly suggestion from the manufacturer - it's a warning label.

My parents upstairs carpet is still stained from the strawberry. Only time I have ever blacked out. My mom thought it was blood at first.

Funny you all black out on what says is less that four percent. What happens when you drink twelve or fourteen<gg>, Mike

Couldn't imagine drinking enough boones to get drunk lol

Boone's Farm Party anyone!? We had a few at my fraternity... always a good time... although the stalls were usually multi-colored the next day :cross:

Two bottles is about four beers, how much do you weigh?

That would explain a lot lol wrestling can kill your tolerance with all the weight cutting and never being able to drink

For god sakes no.....Some things are better left in the past. And multicolored vomit is one of those things.

Not a fan of BF but this thread reminds me of a funny story.

On the way to the Kentucky Derby one year I stop at a gas station in the middle of no where. They literally have 2 glass front coolers full of different colors of boones farm, it was really quite impressive, like a bum wine rainbow. Well as I'm checking out, I decide to be a smart ass and this conversation with the check out lady ensues

me: "You must have the best selection of Boones Farm I have ever seen"
her: uffing out chest: before saying "Well thank you very much"

If it wasn't for boone's farm, I would probably still be a virgin.

At $2 a bottle, I would buy one for her and four of her friends.

For $10 and a trip to the grocery store I was guaranteed to get lucky that night.

Lol I actually enjoy boones farm oddly enough and I'm a bourban drinker and don't think I could possibly drink enough to get drunk lol

How would I make something similar? Ferment malt and add kook aide?

Lol, try fermenting somehing clear like corn, or rice, or corn sugar, then adding 15 jolly rancher candies per gallon! ;-)
