The Perry Fields of Austria

The summers are sweet in Mostviertel. Tucked between Salzburg and Vienna, the region is one of the world’s premier producers of Perry. The beverage, commonly called pear cider, is among the most refreshing of alcoholic summer drinks. Perry has a consistent mild sweetness. It is like alcoholic fruit juice. The area can provide a lovely extended vacation, weekend trip, or even a day trip from Vienna. Hotels in Vienna are only too happy to facilitate a trip to the countryside and provide advice on the closest cider inn.
