James Squire Orchard Crush Pear Cider / Perry | Malt Shovel Brewery
ABV: 5.0%
Style: Cider - Perry / Poiré
Actively Produced
Description: As Australia’s first brewer, James Squire grew many of the ingredients found in his first batches of brew himself, most notably Australia’s first crop of hops. Having had an orchard on his land, it wouldn’t be surprising if he experimented with cider in his day. Think back 15-or-so years ago when the Australian craft beer market featured James Squire Amber Ale (now better known as Nine Tales) and, um,that was about it. Today, by contrast, craft beer is all the rage and you have a scene that is not so much thriving as singing and tap-dancing its way onwards and upwards. Now Australian brewers and beer aficionados alike are turning their attention to a new brew – cider. Following the success of Orchard Crush Apple Cider, we turned our attention to pear cider. Now, let’s be clear, Orchard Crush Pear Cider is an equal, not a sequel – as anyone who experiences the fresh pear aroma, subtle sweetness and smooth finish will quickly appreciate. This medium-dry cider is made from seasonal Australian pears, predominantly Packham pears, and goes perfectly with a cheese platter or a ploughman’s.
