Bomber from New Beer. Fluted tulip.
Thought I was being gentle pouring it out, but it still came out hazy. Yellow gold body, with a near overpour of fizzy soda head.
Smell is of a tall, refreshing American wheat, garnished with a big, fat orange wedge. Phenols?
Taste is full of juicy pear, orange juice, apples, & table grapes. Comes off a lot like a low alcohol white sangria. Not seriously sweet, but very bright, & pears can’t really half ass it. Just barely a peak of banana at the tail end. Keeping this cider chilled is key.
Carbonation is low, but it still keeps the yeast kept in check. Juicy body. Constant, perfect level of acid. Little blips of tartness. Quiet alcohol.
Having had a few witbier ciders, this one surprised me with how well it kept the yeast from pumping out excessive clove/banana/plastic/rubber like I’ve had in other examples. Can’t say much for the base perry(which is probably junk), but everything put together was yummy. I really enjoyed it.
