Hop water might just be the best thing invented in recent years; it combines sparkling water with the deliciousness of hops (yes, the same hops used to brew beer).
While we’ve tried different brands of hop water across the United States and the UK, we’ve not seen hop water in other countries – until now.
Find out what we think about this Polish hop water in our Nachmielona Chmiel + Woda review.

Nachmielona Chmiel + Woda Review
Looks
Nachmielona pours a standard hop water look, with some haze and a touch of yellow tone. There is a lot of visible bubbles from the carbonation.
Aroma
On the nose, we get aroma notes of tropical fruits like mango, citrus orange, and a note of pine.
Taste
As for the flavors, there are notes of melon, but it feels like it is missing more flavor notes. It would have been nicer if the mango and citrus orange notes are more prominent.
There is also a slight hop bitterness, which is not always commonly found in hop water.
For the body, Audrey would have preferred more carbonation, but I thought it was lively on the palate.
Nachmielona Chmiel + Woda Ingredients
This hop water is brewed with water and 0.35% hops with no added sugar, colors, or flavors. Unfortunately, there is no information about the type of hops used.
Nachmielona Chmiel + Woda Calories
As you would expect from any hop water, Nachmielona Chmiel + Woda has zero calories and zero carbohydrates.
Final Verdict Of Our Nachmielona Chmiel + Woda Review
Nachmielona Chmiel + Woda is a refreshing and tasty hop water, even if it is not the tastiest hop water we’ve tried. The hops are prominent in the aroma and taste, but lacks more distinct notes on the palate.
Overall, another tasty hop water that we will drink again.
Where to Buy Nachmielona Chmiel + Woda
We bought our can at a craft beer store in Krakow, Poland. Unfortunately, we can’t find it being sold in the UK or the US.
