Oct 18, 2008 [Bottle] shared by skyview. Pours gold with a tiny head. Aroma is sweet pear, some maple syrup, and a touch of vinegar. Flavor is syrupy, pear, brown sugar, apricot, and a little alcohol. Silky smooth.

Jun 3, 2008 Sweet pear aroma with a hint of brown sugar. Similar flavor but with a well balanced sweetness. Gold color. Thanks to Skyview for sharing.

May 26, 2008 Much better than the dry pear. Sweet aroma with a little yeast and abundant pear. Flavor is sweet but there is a bite from the carbonation. Gold in color and very smooth, and the sweet flavor with sugar and pears makes this very drinkable. I would drink this again. Thanks to Skyview for sharing.

May 19, 2008 (bottle, thanks Skyview!) Pours dark gold. Aroma is a nice mix of caramel, butter, brown sugar, and some light alcohol. Taste is brown sugar, honey, and raisin, I didn’t taste any pear though. Mouthfeel is medium and very smooth. This is probably the best perry I’ve ever tasted.

May 16, 2008 Picked up a 750 ml bottle from the winery near Bayfield, Wisconsin. Pours a clear golden caramel perry/cider with a clean top. Aroma of lots of sweet tropical fruit, pineapple, pears, and even a touch of passion fruit. Taste is smooth and silky, with flavors of sweet pear, creme of tartar, light pineapple and some apricot. Finish is just as smooth and silk with a sweet finish at first and then immediate disappear act. Alcohol is very well hidden throughout this perry. Wow! If I could pick one sweet perry as a standard to compare all others I would definitely use this one. I would also like to see this winery make an ice perry with this style. Most excellent!

May 15, 2008 Another thanks to Skyview. Gold color. Lots of pear aroma. The taste is something like lightly sugared pear, then cooked and slightly caramelized. Touch of honey. Best Perry for sure.

May 14, 2008 Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Clear robust amber. Crystal clean aroma of crisp pear and pineapple. Acidic, bright. Some green fruitiness about it on the fringes, very earthy and soft. Floral honey and powdered sugar and pastry crusts; sweetness is the whole show, though it renders itself with care and practiced ease. Flavor a simple montage of pear and honey, hinting toward citrusy touches of lemon and apricot and leaning on this very subtle but vibrant body of lush tropical fruitiness. White grapes and some easygoing heat in the mid palate. Syrupy, sprightly palate with a softly reticent show of alcohol; complexities prevalent but streamlined. Lemon acidity and juicy pear finish with some warmth and giving sweetness. Lovely. Thanks for sharing, Bob!
