Nachmelená Hruška
Mills Brewing

Nachmelená Hruška was made by co-fermenting an equal proportion of Herefordshire perry pear juice (2023 harvest) from Red Pear, Red Longdon, Blakeney Red, Winnals Longdon and Gin with wort made in the style of a Czech svetlý ležák (light lager), using Czech grown barley and a quantity of Fuggles hops. This was then conditioned in bottle for 6 months before release. Named by Tom's Czech right-hand man Jarek, "Nachmelená Hruška" translates as "hopped" or "drunk pear." The resulting blend is suprisingly creamy, with a delicate balance between pear sweetness and snappy hopping.
