Sample many thanks to Danlo! Pours pale gold, faint mist. Thin white ring atop. Aroma brings distinct quince to the fore, a touch woody. Taste is all about the quince, oily on the palate with tart fresh citrus, woody splinters, with delicate leafy green apple notes. Quite nice.

Sample, many thanks to Danlo! Pours a murky golden white. Can't ever recall describing a perry like that before. Aroma brings fleshy perry pear, not too vibrant. Taste is crisp on the palate, with lovely perry pear nuances creeping through, medium dry with a subtle fruity character. Not bad.

Sample, many thanks to Danlo! Pours a pale golden yellow. Aroma of dry apple fruit, winter orchard. Taste presents a natural wild feel, dry apple fruit, dandelion with a gentle acidity. Ok.

Sample, many thanks to danlo! Clear gold appearance. Aroma brings light perry, drying air. Very fine spritz with a gripping acidity on the palate with soft underlying tannin. Fairly dry perry character overall, gentle fruitiness, moderately sweet, expected a little more perry pear character shining through, perhaps a unique German variety, but it's a little timid, pleasant overall tho.

Sample, many thanks to danlo! Pours a generally clean, oily gold. Aroma brings light caramel, stewed apple. Fine, almost soft natural carbonation. Tart introduction with a pleasant medium dry character, natural wild acidity with crisp apple skin notes. Finishes dry. Not bad.

Sample, many thanks to Danlo! Pours gold, very lightly unclear. Aroma presents gently rich apple, oaky. Soft carbonation lifts a moderate acidity, medium dry apple fruit.. barrel-aged influence seems quite tame, but overall it's a pleasant medium dry more at tune with English styles than German apfelwein.
