From a polypin at the Cornubia, Bristol. Deep amber with slight carbonation. Aroma of tart, oaky apples with some pear sweetness in the background. Flavour was the reverse, syrupy pear upfront followed by earthy apples and a dryish finish. Fine.

From a polypin at the Portcullis, Clifton, Bristol 5/09/10. This is a golden coloured cider/perry mix. It worked well, with the dryness of the apple fruit combining nicely with the more sweet pears before a lingering, medium dry finish. Very drinkable.

On tap at the Grain Barge, Bristol, April 2010. According to the ukcider website Broadoak make this for the Lilleys Cider Barn distributor. Served very cold, gold in colour with lots of carbonation. Very sweet juice, somewhere between perry and cider, losing the separate character of each in the mix. Sweet, undemanding drinking.
