Perry

Not our favorite perry, but a decent bottle and would have again if offered (and the better bottles from Snowdrift we’re not available). Goes best with food, preferably a white meat.

Hoppy bitterness overwhelms any pear flavour but the overall result is still crisp and drinkable. On draft at Stoneway Cafe.

Bottle pour at Cider Summit Seattle 2015. Semi-dry. I was expecting different with this one…I tasted a lot of bitterness & tartness, and only a very mild pear flavor. I haven’t had too many true perries though, so I probably didn’t know what to really expect. Its made in the labor-intensive way of Méthode Champenoise (secondary fermentation). I wasn’t really a fan. Red is definitely still my favorite from Snowdrift….and it was getting a lot of love at the Summit! Cornice and Cliffbreaks Blend are both also awesome.
