JPDIPSO (4189), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA May 10, 2008 Pale yellow color with a few white bubbles on top. Mineral and acidic aromas. Unfortunately reminds me of asparagus after it has traversed the urinary tract. Mild pear and sauerkraut flavors. Enough sweetness that helps assuage some of the flavors, but I’m still quite puzzled bu this one. I think if you drink it cold and quick enough you miss some of the things that make me wonder if I should really be drinking this.

Pours the color of a clear, light chardonnay with bubbles and a white ring around the glass. aroma of plastic, card noard, corn syrup, over-rippened pear, sulfur and methane. Blah, this stuff tastes pretty bad. Cloyingly sweet, with sulfur. I guess I get what I payed for. Small bubbles but obviously force carbonated. Beerlando (1158), Orlando, Florida, USA Jun 22, 2008 Draft at The Social. Pours a clear, pale yellow-straw color. Copious amounts of obtuse bubbles line the entire length of the glass, pooling into a fizzy, off-white head. Aromas are as muted as can be, with notes of sweet sugar water and diluted, artificial pear syrup. Flavors are equally disappointing, basically tasting like a train wreck of light corn syrup, water, and pear. The mouthfeel is thin and fizzy, finishing with a sweet, sticky film. Overall, this basically looks, smells, and drinks like a watered down pear soda. This stuff is atrocious. Walt (2257), Chicago, Illinois, USA May 15, 2008 Pour is clear bright yellow with a thin white head...smell is sweet and sugary pear....super sweet...sweet and vegetable water fruit juice flavor...blech! obguthr (707), Poquoson, Virginia, USA Apr 26, 2008 Green bottle with a screw cap: Horrible garbage disposal smell. Clear yellow, no carbonation. Rubber garbage flavor. Only slightly pear-like. Weird butter and sour cream finish. My luck with ciders and perries has been abyssmal lately.
