Comments: A top perry, approachable, yet tasty. A classy drink of soft elegance and candied, juicy flavours.

From barrel @ GBBF 2007, London. Hazy light yellow color with virtually none head. Aroma is pear, light medicine, light sour. Flavor is moderate sweet with a average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is flat.

Bag in the box at Planet Thanet BF 07. Nail varnish aroma. Stewed pears in mouth. Very dry on finish. Excellent dry perry. Lots of sour/chemical perry on aroma. Stewed pear fruit in mouth.

A Mes rate: Stillage @ Planet Thanet. Pery is not my thing usually. This however was excellent. Dry but not overly so. Sweet and tarty with a glorious pukery juicy feel. Soft yet assertive. Really enjoyed it.

Tap, at GBBF 2005. Hazy straw gold, flat. Soft sweet fruitiness in the nose, some pear sweetness in the mouth and a gentle lingering fruitiness in the finish.

Cask Stillage at the Town Hall, Accrington 21/06/2003 Clear white rich on the palate with a fruity aroma. Lasting finish.

Barrel, GBBF 2005: Pretty ordinary and acceptable perry. Easy to drink and a bit too watery.
