Commercial Description:
Ace Pear is made from a base of 100% pure, local apple juice. Pear essence is added to give the cider its distinctive pear taste; a taste so fresh and natural it is already proving as popular as its more traditional apple counterpart.

(Bottle) Pours a champagne clear body and no head. Medium carbonation. Nose of cantaloupe. Flavour is tangy, tart, sweet and mellon.

Pale yellow body with a bright white head. The aroma has very sweet notes of pears and some wood. The taste has rich sweet notes of canned pears. There is also a floral character. This is overall very sweet, but a pleasing sumemr cooler.

My second hard cider, my first pear cider, so, I’m not really sure what to look for, but it was damn tasty! It poured a clear straw color, similar to champagne. It had a pear/white grape juice flavor, that was very crisp and refreshing. Very good stuff, Cheers!

Poured fom bottle a clear very light-yellow with the thinnest layer of white foam and heavy carbonation. Aroma is of perfumy pear and a touch of sulfur. Flavor is tart apple, pear, and sugary syrup. Palate starts tart then quickly turns overly sweet and a bit sticky. Overall, not my cup of tea but I though I would give it a shot since my wife bought it. I’m sure there must be better examples out there.

Similar to the apple cider but this time with a light pear aroma to it. Pretty good.

Not impressed at all. Poor cider that’s weak, almost like an expired juice box. The pear flavor was lacking.
