Bag in a box at Firkin Alehouse Folkestone. Cola coloured lasting tan head. Smells of cola bottles. Tastes of cola bottle too sweet. Almost like vinegar on the finish. God help me i never want to drink it again. way too sweet.

[First rating, 4/10/16, RB 4/1/6/3/10 (2.4)] Keg at the Greyfriar, Reading. Extremely pale yellow, like tap water that someone waved an elderflower at. From a distance. Smells of nail varnish remover and pear drops. Taste is tinned pear and sugar. It’s generally sweet; there is a little apple skin dryness but not anywhere near enough to balance the sugar. It’s not great, but it’s drinkable. [Second rating, 13/7/18, RB 7/2/7/3/13 (3.2)] Draught at the Outlook, Reading. Hazy pale yellow. Sweet tinned pear juice with a little tannic skin and - oddly - some dried parmesan. Enjoyed this a lot more than the previous time I had it. Don't know why. Never quite got the hang of ciders and perries; sometimes I like them and sometimes I don't. This was one of the "like" times! Entered score is the average of all ratings.

Cask the the Northumberland Arms, Brentford. Pale yellow colour, some white bubbles on top and apple & pear aroma. Taste is sweet, fruity pear and juicy apple. Syrupy mouthfeel, light to medium bodied, low carbonation, residual sweet finish. Quite OK.

Box @ North London Tavern, Kilburn, London. Hazy, very pale yellow perry with a surprisingly soft, easy-drinking texture for its strength. It’s a little like fruit juice in this case respect, although is clearly not so in its taste as it’s alcohol content is very obvious here. Its fruitiness is light tasting, dry bitter-sweet, with some in its nose.
