Pellet Hops

Great dual purpose hop with tropical fruit, citrus, berry, and herbal characteristics. Awesome hop for single pale ale/IPA recipes!

Previously used only for bittering but recently has been used in combination with other hops for flavoring and aroma. Flavor and aroma are a little "rough". Allegedly used in Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale.

From the Moxee Valley of Washington State, comes a hop named after the legendary city of gold; El Dorado. It was released in 2010, but went through a period where it wasn't available to the homebrew community, but now it is! Elicits responses of fruity notes, specifically tropical fruit flavors. Other fruit notes offered have been pear, watermelon candy and stone fruit.

Citrus bomb pretty much sums it up. It is a high alpha version of Cascade, but slightly more pungent. Can be used for bittering anywhere you would use Cascade, but as an aroma/flavor hop, it can be quite intense due to the high essential oil content (can be as much as twice the typical oil content of Cascade), so compensate accordingly. Centennial is the star of Bell's Two Hearted Ale.

An American hop variety, that has been described as a "super cascade". Flavor profile is tropical and very citrusy, especially leaning toward a distinct orange flavor and aroma. This is the signature hop featured in Three Floyd's Gumball Head.

From Australia comes one of the most interesting new hops out on the market! Australian Summer is a wonderful hop full of melon and candy character. It has a very bright profile that is fruity and works in a number of different ales. Australian Summer is perfect as a flavor or aroma hop, and can be well-utilized as a dry hop too! As a flavor or aroma hop, Australian summer is well balanced, with fruit, melon, apricot and candy notes. Dry hopping is said to infuse stone fruit and melon character into beer. Perfect for pale ales and IPAs, let your imagination set the limit for how you use this extraordinary hop!
