Small, disappearing white head over faintly veiled, pale yellow-golden beer. Aromatic fruity nose, bit gassy. With some searching, pear becomes obvious. Solvent, and a bit of Bretts? Pear is even more obvious in the flavour, almost perry-like. Make that: perry full stop. Very dry finish, again signs of wild yeast. Light, very refreshing, feels better carbonated than it looks. Ultra dry in the end. Interesting - in the good sense of the word. Given blind, I'd classified it as perry, not as beer.

750 ml bottle from Rad Beer. A pear saison. Pours hazed gold with white foam. Prominently dry, bright, spritzy. Quite mild, subtle flavours, low funk. Nice enough.
