From the Official Brewers Site in FAQ section. http://www.magnerscider.com/about-us/faqs.asp
1. Is Magners the Same as Bulmers in Ireland?
Magners is identical to Bulmers in terms of product taste and characteristics and its branding, packaging and promotional strategy is based on the marketing approach, which has been so successful for the Bulmers brand in Ireland.
2. Why is Magners Called Bulmers in the Republic of Ireland?
Bulmers Ltd. manufacturers of both Bulmers and Magners, do not own the trade mark for Bulmers outside of the Republic of Ireland.
The Magners name is derived from the name of local Clonmel man, William Magner, who in 1935 started cider production and founded the company which is today Bulmers of Clonmel.
The Magners brand name was developed by Bulmers Ltd. in 1999 when the company decided to apply its outstandingly successful home market development strategy to a number of export markets. The Magners brand, which intentionally mirrors all the product and design characteristics of the Bulmers brand, was successfully test marketed in Spain, Germany and Northern Ireland and is now exported to 17 countries worldwide.

Theyre the same but for some reason i'd rather have Bulmers...probably because the bar im at every Sat night does it instead of Mangers
Magners = North
Bulmers = South
Well thats the way in Ireland anyways!

I like Bulmers more, i think they taste different ..... even though they are the same, Magners has like a peppery after taste to it. To be honest Swedish Koppenberg Cider is the one or Scrumpty Jacks lol! Can't beat a bit of Woodpecker for a stop in though!
I'm abit of a Cider drinking I think lol :/
