Bottle from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours dark rose with no head. Blackberry aroma. Med minus body. Flavor has blackberry, and maybe seed, flavors, which tend to hide the pear. Nice take on perry.

Bottle, pinched a rates worth from Sue over lunch at Anacapa Brewing Co, Ventura 01/05/14. Cherry red in appearance with little in the way of a covering. Nose is blackcurrant, light spice, bramble berries, apple & blackcurrant squash. Taste comprises much the same, a little pear is detectable, moderate sweetness, orchard fruit and blackcurrant. Medium bodied, fine carbonation. Ok fruit cider.

Refrigerated 12 oz. brown bottle poured into a white wine glass. Pours hazy/cloudy golden. Aroma is apples/honey, medium body, no carbonation, and no lacing. Taste is whisky, honey, and hint of peaches. Flavors don’t meld for me.

Firkin Fest 2014. One of the better beverages of the day. Sweet aroma with apple. Some bourbon in the aroma as well, but it is not overpowering. I also smell lavender. Lightly sweet apple finish with yeast. Good.

Bottle from Whole Foods in Davis, CA. Pours perry color. Aroma seemed apple but deep inhale brings out some nice floral. Dry it is. It seems a bit thin, I’m still thinking floral, and the carbonation isn’t all that firm. Yet it is a very pleasing drink. I think the refined might apply to the somewhat tart appleskin showing up in the finish.

Reminds me of Growers in B.C. but not as good. Pours like Canada dry and just as fizzy. Apple tastes like fake powdered apple mix. Sweet and light sour finish. Tap for free at Whole Foods, the only way it should be
