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.

Draught. Heavily carbonated. I was disappointed by the smell of candy. A little bit sour. A dry cider. If not for the smell it would be better.

Bottle at Secklow Hundred, Milton Keynes, in Wetherspoons BF ’08. Very pale gold. Last time I saw something as pale as this was when a free bottle of Lambrini arrived with my Chinese takeaway meal. Aroma is iceberg lettuce going a bit brown round the edges but the middle is still OK. Also Barrett’s Sherbet Fountain and nail varnish. Taste is sweet with some sourness and something else, rather like unripe grapes. Could that be the ’pear essence’? Different, complex and slightly less good than Lambrini.

2008 Knoxville Brewer’s Jam. Very pale yellow. Light aroma of apple/pear. Sweet, spritzy refreshing. Not bad really.

Had this, by surprise, on tap at the Harris Grill East End Pgh. Clear and barely any yellow color, just barely pale yellow like clear clean pee. Perfumy sweet fruit aroma, nice but not offensive. Very cool initial taste, not overly sweet. Can’t taste any alky in this, hides it well. Good creamy tingly carbonation. Very enjoyable. I like this stuff. Friendly and goes down way too easy. Finish? What finish? Crap. its gone! Good stuff, gimmie another! Nifty perry, probably liked this so much because it was the first cider or perry I had on tap!
