330ml bottle into glass. Sharp vinegar nose calms down to tart apple. Pale yellow/green with medium carbonation. Flat mouthfeel, slightly tart dry finish, a bit of umami. Fairly routine and a bit boring.

330ml bottle from Dan Murphy’s, Hurstville . Pale yellow colour, short-lived white foam head and sweet apple aroma. Taste is apple, sweet, tangy, hint of sulphur. Light bodied, medium carbonation, dry lightly tannic finish. OK.

(Bottle) Clear straw, no head. Subtle aroma, mainly funky with some tangy fruit and spice hints. Light body with lovely smooth and bright carbonation. Nice fresh and apples taste with some spicy hints. Nicely but gently tart with some sweetness. Nice easy drinking cider.

(Bottle) Clear pale golden with perhaps a lime green tint, and no head. Pleasant aroma of tart apple / pear with a hint of funk and possibly wood. Light bodied with plenty of pleasant carbonation. Nice taste, a little sweet for me, but there’s enough else going on to make this in interesting drink. Starts of light and slightly tart, then develops in the mid palate plenty of fruit flavours, which knowing it is made of pears I can identify as pears, but would otherwise just be an interesting fruitiness. Following this the funky, woody notes make a subtle reappearance adding some class. I did catch those funky notes sometimes in the foretaste too. Overall very drinkable, but a touch too sweet.

Light straw colour. Light pear character on the nose. The oak is quite a bit heavier on the palate. Nice refreshing perry.

Bottle 33 cl at Royal Albert Hotel, Sydney, on July 18, 2013.I accidentally rubbed off the BB date when getting rid of some condensation...Clear pear color, no head. Sweet, a bit tart, cidery, sort of vinous taste, hints of sulphides, more apple than pear to me. Fruity, dry aftertaste. Medium mouthfeel to a bit fizzy, pretty much no bitterness, but some fruit peel touch. Sweet, fruity scent.
