Mills Brewing Flor
Other Styles 7.2 º
Flor is a masterclass in spontaneous complexity, showcasing the delicate interplay between local Hereford ingredients and two years of patient oak aging. Brewed with equal parts pale barley malt and wheat, the beer presents a polished, pale gold profile. The influence of Tom Oliver’s cider barrels introduces nuanced notes of apple skin and soft wood tannins. On the palate, a single addition of unaged hops delivers a refined, clean bitterness that balances the rustic funk of wild fermentation. Expect aromas of dried stone fruit and damp hay, leading to a bone-dry, effervescent finish that highlights the elegant character of the wild yeast.
Appearance. Polished, pale gold (4–6 SRM) with excellent clarity and a persistent, fine-beaded white head that leaves delicate lacing.
Aroma. Moderate to high intensity featuring wild funk (wet hay, barnyard) integrated with aged cider notes and lemon zest. Low bready wheat character supports stone fruit esters like dried apricot and subtle oak vanillin.
Taste. Bone-dry and highly attenuated. Initial flavors of tart apple and under-ripe peach transition into a rustic, earthy funk. A clean, firm hop bitterness provides a structured, crystal-clear finish. Malt presence is minimal, offering a faint cracker-like wheat quality that allows fermentation complexity and subtle wood tannins to persist in the aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with high, lively carbonation from bottle conditioning. Very dry and crisp, with a faint, pleasant astringency from the oak and a subtle, well-integrated alcohol warmth.

Flor is a fine example of keeping things simple. Blended from two old Herefordshire cider barrels containing one brew made in February 2023. The grist was composed of pale malted barley and wheat in equal proportions. One large addition of fresh unaged hops came at the beginning of the boil to give a refined and crystal-clear bitter finish, while leaving space for the flavours of fermentation to come to the fore. The wort was filled into two old oak barrels from cider and perry maker Tom Oliver and left untouched to spontaneously ferment for two years. The resulting beer was primed with cane sugar and left to carbonate naturally in the bottle for six months. The finished beer is polished and delicate.
