375ml bottle from Hereford Beer House. Misty gold appearance, sweaty funky apple must on the nose. Taste is a little sweaty, some earthy root vegetable / broadbean notes, woody stalk with a hazy farmhouse fruit sweetness coursing through. Distant dusty tannins. Pretty good.

Bottle split at L6, thanks to Fergoose, 10/02/20. Pale almost translucent yellow with white spotting that soon dissipates. Nose is pear drop, hint of glue, sweet and tangy orchard fruit, grass. Taste comprises bitter sweet pears, vinous tones, orchard wood, straw. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close. Decent perry … not too sweet … balances well.
