Azacca

Azacca was bred in Washington by the American Dwarf Hop Association, renamed to Latitude 46, with parentage of Toyomidori (Northern Brewer Grandmother and USDA 64103 Grandfather) and ADHA 94/95 (Summit Grandmother and ADHA 99-25 Grandfather). It is named for the Haitian god of agriculture. Azacca is a great late and/or dry hop. The sustained profile for the aroma situates to that usage. Whirlpooling brings out the juicy flavor and sweet aroma.

Bitter Gold

Bitter Gold was released in 1999 and has lineage linked to Brewer's Gold, Bullion, Comet and Fuggle. Higher alpha acids than any of its parents as well as when compared to Galena or Nugget, which are considered close substitutes. Mild profile when used as a bittering addition but shines in later additions, delivering stone and tropic fruit flavors.

Exotique®

Exotique® was bred by Wild About Hops in New Zealand. Bred from a Riwaka female and proprietary male, is full of peach, blueberry, pear, kiwi, and lime.

Nugget

Nugget was bred by the United States Department of Agriculture in Corvallis, Oregon, starting in 1970.. Initial commercial release was 1983. Brewer's Gold heritage. Used primarily as a bittering hop, especially in the early days, but now has been given dual duty as an aroma hop as well. Pedigree is quite complex and makes it a mutt: Brewer's Gold, Early Green, East Kent Golding, Bavarian (unspecified) and unknown variety.

Pilgrim

Bred at Wye College in Kent, England, with parents of First Gold and Herald. Pilgrim was released commercially in 2001. It is one of the most wilt resistant hops out today.

Rakau

Rakau was re-released in 2007 by the New Zealand Hop Breeding Program. Considered to have "the whole orchard" by the breeder. Orginally bred in the 70s it was not released until 1983. The myrcene oil content concentration leads to the aforementioned huge orchard profile while low cohumulone make it less bitter. Lineage of Smooth Cone.

Vista

Vista was bred by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), in Corvallis, Oregon, in 2006 and released in 2021. It was part of the USDAs Elite Line breeding program. Parentage from Perle, Northern Brewer, and Hallertau. Selected due to high yields, high tolerance to drought and heat, and great sensory profile.

Did you know?
  • Dwarf variety hops grow shorter in height than traditional varieties but, importantly, produce the same yield. This combination makes harvest easier.
Explanations
  • Storage: is based on the percentage of alpha acids remaining after 6 months at 20*F.
  • Oil composition percentages are based on the total percentage of oil in the hop. Example: 10 - 20% means that for the specific oil it is 10 - 20% of the overall oil make up.
