William's Sir Perry Traditional English Style Perry (Pear Cider)

 Though this is in the beer section, ciders are not beer. Ciders are fermented alcoholic beverages made from fruit juices (Wikipedia). This one is made from pear juice and contains 6% alcohol. It is made in the UK.


A single can of Sir Perry will cost you $3.05 from the LCBO. The LCBO describes the tasting notes as: aromas of fleshy peach, pear & mineral; flavours of sweet pear.  

Ingredients

We decided to drink it chilled (as recommend on the can).

Three of us were tasting this pear cider.
After we opened the can, we could immediately smell the alcohol, along with a hint of pear. Here's what we thought:

Morena: It tastes like white wine and the pear taste was faint. I was expecting it to taste more like pears. It might taste better if it were colder or served over ice. 2.5/5

Corey: It's tart and you can really taste the alcohol. 3/5

Katherine: Tastes like bad wine! 2/5

We all agreed that this cider wasn't the best we've tried and that it might taste better if it were colder.
