Brothers Festival Strength Pear Cider

Brewed by Matthew Clark Cider
Style: Perry
Bristol, England

Bottle. Hazy, pale gold with no head and slight carbonation. Sweet, spicy and synthetic dessert pear aroma. Sweet pear juice flavour, with some butterscotch lurking in the background, a touch of wood and medium sweet finish. Tolerable.

A Mes rate: bottle at home, god only knows where this came from, it’s been lying around for years.
Pale wee wee yellow. Not the best looking cider. Sweet and fruity aroma with well hidden alcohol. Similar flavour. A little more apple character than the aroma. Slightly astringent and more peel than flesh. Faint prickle of booze in the finish hints at the reasonable abv. Not too great but could be a hell of a lot worse.

Bottle, from Morrisons, Grimsby. Pale pale gold, thin shortlived white head and gentle condition. Low citrus sweet pear drop candy aromas, quite fruity in the mouth with a slight oiliness and a touch of retronasal alcohol, short sweet finish with a touch of dry bitterness and esters

Bought at my local Spar this is quite pale straw in colour and has a light fruity aroma. Easy drinking stuff with a bit of sweetness but not too much so not cloying in any way. Don’t think you could quaff too many of these at a festival and expect to last the pace!

very pale golden with a little fizz,little sharp fruity nose,definitly pear lightly so, little tart. quite sweet.all round not to bad

Bottle. Pale gold with lots of bubbles. Aromas are sweet pear with some pear drop sweets acidicy. Flavours are too "peary" to be a proper perry. Like drinking a turbo charged pear soft drink. Dry and a bit artificial on the finish. Not a true perry, but still fairly enjoyable.
