Brothers Pear Cider

Brewed by Matthew Clark Cider
Style: Perry
Bristol, England

Bottle purchased in Cork City, IRE. Aroma is a white wine vinegar, pears, grapes. Light gold body, thin white head. Taste is pear, white wine, light alcohol shines through somehow. Body is fluffy.

Bottle shared with my wife at the Whitelocks Pub, Leeds. Pours a clear bubbly pale gold with no head. Aroma of pears, some wood and white wine. Nice and simple flavour of sweet pears with a dry finish. This is so easy to drink, you wouldn’t even know this had alcohol in it -- kids could drink this! It was between this and Strongbow, I’m glad my wife ordered this.

very light slightly yellow, small staying white head. sour and citrus and pear in the aroma. artificial pear. flavor is nicely sour, faint citrussy, pear, flavor is much better than aroma.

Clear golden with a tiny white head. Aroma was souris with pears, phenol. Flavour was sweet with pears, phenol and apples.

Very pale gold in colour with a good stream of bubbles. Pleasant tart fruity flavours thankfully not as sweet as expected nice and refreshing. Better than some other pear ciders I’ve tried. I preferred this to the Festival strength version. Bought at Spar.

Bottle, from Morrisons. Straw gold, quickly dissipating fizzy white head and gentle condition. Low sweet buttery pear aromas, quite thin and dry in the mouth with some traces of pear and a faintly lambic farmyard note that is less exciting than it sounds. Short, briefly sweet finish.

Bottle 50cl.
Clear light to medium yellow color with a small, fizzy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, white head. Aroma is light pear, rubber notes. Flavor is light to moderate sweet and light acidic with a average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. [20081227]
