Cascade Enriched Hop Pellets
Cascade: Still a classic. No other hop has done more for craft beer.
SKU: HCAS3044
Breeding/Development
Oregon, USA. The granddaddy of American craft-brewing hops, Cascade was bred in 1956 through a USDA program and first released in 1972. Its ancestry includes English Fuggle and Russian Serebrianka.
Brewing Application
Enriched Hop Pellets can be used anywhere T-90 pellets would be incorporated, but are ideal for aroma, whirlpool and dry hop additions. Due to the higher concentration of acids and oils in enriched pellets, hop charges in many recipes can be reduced by approximately 50% vs. T-90 pellets or whole hop cones. We recommend conducting trials to determine the optimal usage rate for your formulation.
Applicable Styles
The classic finishing hop for countless craft ales, Cascade’s famously citrus-like character and floral overtones are right at home in pale ales, blondes, wheats, IPAs, stouts, porters … pretty much any American craft style. Can serve as a soloist in single-hop formulations.
