Bag in a box at Cotteridge Convention 2018. Light pear flavour. Not too sweet. Some tannin on finish. Decent pear juice I thought. Thanks Leighton.

Bottle from ASDA online. Chemical pear aroma with added saccharine. Pale gold. A steady rise of bubbles. White head just clings to the inside rim. Light-medium sweet which then develops sourness. Reminds me of sour jelly sweets. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Dry finish. The palate's probably the best thing about it. Mass produced factory Perry.

750 ml clear screwcap bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 7.5%. Clear very pale greenish-yellow colour, nearly like water. Pours sparkling with a large but shortlived white head. Aroma of pears (some of them decaying) and candy Medium sweet flavour, notes of dessert pears, a hint of sulphites. Could use a counterpoint of tannins / some bitterness.

20cl bottle. Chilled. Very pale yellow colour, white foam head that dissipates away and aroma of pear with a hint of sulphur. Taste is pear, sugary, sweet, fruity, melon-like and white wine. Thin mouthfeel, light bodied, spritzy carbonation, dry and residual sweet at the finish. OK.

Bottle shared at Leightons place 21/03/2016. Thanks to Paul for this one? Very pale petrol coloured pour with a fine white head. Aroma is tangy apple and fruity pears, some alcohol, cheap. Flavour is composed of harsh tangy, dry apple, harsh solvent, alcohol. Palate is dry and pithy, highish carbonation. Too harsh.
