MiP (6026), Flensburg, Germany Sep 9, 2008 Plastic cask, 6.5% at GBBF08. Good citric aroma. Hazy very pale yellow colour. Thin mouthfeel. Citric flavour, hint of pickled cucumber. Citric finish. Nekronos (1946), Xalapa, Mexico Aug 29, 2008 Very nice not so swet but not sour. It was as semi incipit as the pears use to be. Had it ahd GBBF 2008. Aarleks (402), Sydney, Australia Mar 31, 2006 Bottle: Beautiful, slightly sparkling clear light gold. Barnyard pear and apple aromas with cheesy (washed rind) notes and some volatile alcohol. In the mouth... essence of pear!! Delightful gentle, elegant. Lovely floral, sweet, pear flavours and an underlying funk and straw note. Very nice acidity to balance and some puckering tannins which are just right. Simple and glorious.
