Box @ Stratford Alehouse. Pours a hazy pinkish purple. Fruity berry-like aroma. Taste has no perry characteristics.. it’s a still, fruity drink with a bit of alcohol in I guess. Does have some Robinsons pear and raspberry cordial notes to it. Harmless enough, and quenched our thirst after a walk round Shakespeare’s home-town.
