Fox Barrel Pear Naked Organic Perry

Bottle: Pours slightly hazy, old gold with a white ring. Scent is pear, a hint of yeast. Taste is mild, light pear...sweet, just on the edge of tart. A slight whiff of vinegar. Refreshing.

Mazel Tov! I have finally gotten around to trying this. Apple, vinegar, plastic aroma. Cloudy old gold. Texture is very light, ethereal. Apple and vanilla flavor. Chemical plastic notes are less evident than in the aroma, but present nonetheless. Texture is fantastic as it seems to completely evaporate the instant it reaches the tongue. On the other hand, the flavor and aroma are slightly tainted.

Bomber from the Folsom Whole Foods. Pours hazy gold with a few white bubbles. Aroma is sort of floral/pear. Near med body. Flavor is pear, but sort of like there’s a grain component. It’s very dry, and moderately bitter. Some pear skin comes out in the finish.

Bottle from Whole Foods. Murky, pale, chicken stock sort of body. Hearty. Fleeting half inch of whitewash head. Smells of honeydew, fresh cider, banana, & some out of place vinegar. Tastes like a mix of sparkling pear juice & a starchy American wheat ale. Gum, fresh apple cider, & more subtle vinegar in there. Vanilla finish. Yeah, I read the label, but something still seems iffy here. I guess I’ll just roll with it. I sort of liked it.

Sampled from a bottle. Pours a hazy yellow color with no head. Grainy pear aroma with a white wine note. The taste is dry grain pears, wine and a sweet finish. Thin-medium bodied. Decent.
