Newfoundland Cider in George’s Brook-Milton, Newfoundland, Canada, mostly works with apples, but they’ve also produced a few small-batch perries over the years. This is a recipe for their special Hopped Perry—semidry, wild-fermented, oak-aged, and bottled pét-nat style, featuring additions of Cascade and Centennial hops to accentuate the pears’ own floral notes.
