2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20 heavy (1466) - Split, CROATIA - AUG 11, 2011
08/06 0.5 l can courtesy of Marko, thanks! It poured pale yellow body with enormous carbonation, but small head. Fresh pear, cork, slightly vinous aroma raises my expectations on this perry. Of course, that was dampened upon trying it, as flavor was overly sweet artificial perry juice. Nothing offensive though, just too sweet and boring for my taste and far from natural ciders/perries.
1.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20 Marko (2977) - Split, CROATIA - MAY 26, 2011
Kiss Pear Cider, 4.5%, brewed by Švyturis in Lithuania, 0.5l can found at the Russian store in Zagreb. Very pale yellow body, lively carbonation - almost fizzy, small head that vanished fast - all as expected. Sticky but not overly so pear gummi bear nose. Light perfumey pear notes, fakeish but not offensive ending into a dull dry note of.. um... very diluted alcohol. Which can be slightly offputting when it shows up but which is thankfully rare. A sweet, girly concoction - read - an ordinary Nordic "cider".

1.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20 thirstyrabbit (478) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - OCT 1, 2010
Can. This is not something I would buy. But I got it for free, so hey, let’s rate it. This is so artificial. On further inspection, it appears to be some kind of candy juice. Contains 6% of juice concentrate - why is it even listed here?

Can. Pours a light straw yellow with fizzy white head. Aroma of sour apple jolly rancher, tastes like it too. Overall, a very sweet, syrupy cider that tastes very fake. High fizzy carbonation. This is like a kiddy drink.

(500ml can, courtesy of Swalden28) Pours a clear pale yellow body with a spare white head. Aroma of green apple Jolly Ranchers and unripe pear. Flavor of corn syrup, cardboard, earth, and apple.

(.5L can thanks to Swalden28) pale yellow pour with some bubbles hanging around. Nose of sour apple jolly ranger that someone licked and set down on the table. Light butter and artificial apple as well.Taste of very dry apples, no pear at all, artificial sweetener, lightly tart apples. Syrupy dry finish. This would put a diabetic into a coma it’s so sweet.

Can thanks to Swalden28. Nose is dusty pears, and super sweet Japanese candy. Taste is that weird mango / green apple dusty gum that comes in the cardboard milk jug looking things. Thinner mouthfeel. Not offending, just girly and fruity.
