Brewer: Gwatkin Cider (inc Abbey Dore Ales)
Style: Perry
Alcohol Content: 7.5%

Description:
A still medium perry available in 500ml bottles and occasionally on draught.
NB: Gwatkin sometimes produces draught versions that differ significantly from the bottled. If you rate a draught version please specify that and include details of the ABV and designated sweetness level (if provided).

Traditional full bodied single varietal farmhouse Perry with a slightly cloudy appearance and a fragrant, floral, perhaps even perfumey aroma. Medium sweet, with fruity, perfumey flavors on palate and slight acids & tannins on finish.
The Blakeney Red pear takes its name from the parish of Blakeney on the outskirts of the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, where it still grows today. The trees grow tall, and fruit late in October, November. Despite being harvested by shaking the fruit to the ground with long poles, it keeps well, and can be stored until required. Years ago it was known for its quality as a desert pear. The juice can be used for blending, or as a single variety which produces a medium sweet, full bodied perry.
