Williams Sir Perry

Brewed by Matthew Clark Cider
Style: Perry
Bristol, England

A thin yellowish perry with a thin big bubbled white head. Aroma is lightly sulfurous, rotten fruits, spoiled. In mouth, a sweet refreshing carbonated pear juice, light acidic points, does the trick on this humid plus 30C day. Can from LCBO, bougt a year ago. So it keeps well (I’m very positive about canning).

Can. Dark straw. Light carbonation. Not sure if I have had a Perry before, I will have to check. Kind of a creamy light pear scent. Not very sweet, kind of tart which is good. Kind of dry pear flavour. OK. Although judging from the other scores I may have to search out other examples to develop a frame of reference.

Gold body, thin white head. Aroma is pears, light malt like accent. Taste is watery pear juice with too much carbonation.

500 ml can; Nose of ? (what else) pears; pale yellow with a small white head; flavor is semi tart pears.

The first Perry I ever tasted - and you really can taste the pears in it. Makes you feel kinda healthy when swigging it down. Fizzy and very refreshing. Decent choice when you feel like something new.

J’ai bu ce cidre à quelques reprises au cours d’un été et j’avais été séduit par son côté sec et frais, proche d’un vin mousseux. Il faut aussi dire que j’ai un faible pour les cidres (ah, tous ces BC Growers de ma jeunesse…). De retour a Sir Perry, dans un contexte plus sérieux de fin de février. Couleur jaune citron pâle, avec une effervescence moyenne. Parfum sec de gaz carbonique et de sulfite, peu ou pas de fruits. Goût de sulfite un peu de souffre, sec et astreignant, suivi d’un sucre moyen. Arrière-goût plus agréable, la poire finit par se déposer aux papilles. La bouche est pétillante et mousseuse mais aqueuse. Je pense vraiment que ce cidre, comme la plupart des cidres, doit être bu le plus froid possible. Un cidre tout juste correct finalement, qui a besoin des habits chauds de l’été pour être davantage apprécié.

Bought at the LCBO. surprisingly refreshing nose is almost champagne like very pale yellow big carbonation, flavor is pear and something else sweet but not too sweet

Wow, what a bizarre drink (hence DRINK, not BEER). Aroma is bizarre, almost corny, like all the bad elements of pale lagers. But still fruity, apples, and yes, a hint of pear. The taste is just weird. Rotten sour green apples, with a very sweet malt-like feeling (but not in a good way), rounded out with SOME pear in the finish. Really not very enjoyable. Not repulsive, but I definitely would not order, nor be able to finish a full pint of this weird stuff. Overly carbonated as well.
