Yakima Valley Hops

U.K. Golding is genetically similar to East Kent Golding, but it is just grown outside of the East Kent growing region. Offering comparable noble character — with slight variations depending on the exact farm — U.K. Golding has floral, spice, woody and subtle citrus characteristics that EKG is celebrated for, making it a suitable replacement.

Harlequin® was released in 2019 by the U.K. based Charles Faram Hop Development Programme, boasting big fruit flavors of passion fruit, peach, and pineapple. A daughter of Godiva™ and a grand-daughter of Jester®, Harlequin was selected primarily for its exceptional aroma, improved disease resistance and strong yield potential. The breeder considers Harlequin to be a dual-purpose hop, but it seems to excel in late hop additions, whirlpooling, and dry hopping.

Jester® is a modern UK variety released by the Charles Faram Hop Development Program. The result of Cascade seedlings, Jester brought big, new-world genetics to British fields while keeping that unmistakable UK terroir. Expect punchy citrus, resin, and bright black currants that work in both fruit-forward pale ales and IPAs as well as more traditional styles.

A legendary variety introduced by Virgil Gamache Farms, AMARILLO® VGXP01 c.v. is one of the top 10 most widely used hops. With mid-to-high alpha (8-11%) and the highest myrcene oil content (68-70%) of any hop, Amarillo® packs rich, citrus flavor and aroma that's reminiscent of tangerine, orange and lemon, backed by light stonefruit and wildflowers. Amarillo brings versatility and depth to many beer styles and makes a flavorful team player with other U.S. favorites like Cascade, Citra® and Simcoe®. Amarillo: the all-American, citrus classic that brewers return to again and again.

Azacca® ADHA-483 c.v., named after the Haitian god of agriculture, is a fruit-forward variety developed by the ADHA breeding program (now Latitude 46). With high alpha (14-16%) and high oil, Azacca® bursts a complex range of citrus and tropical fruit, backed by pine and herbal notes. Whirlpool or dry hop with Azacca® to maximize the tropical and sweet fruit flavors of ripe mango, grapefruit, and pineapple. Azacca's dual-purpose nature can round out any IPA or modern ale style on its own or work seamlessly with familiar favorites like Citra® and El Dorado®.

Developed in collaboration with John I. Haas and Brulotte Farms, BRU-1™ goes big and bold with pineapple flavor and clean bittering (13-15%). BRU-1™ is known for its distinct pineapple aroma, rounded out by green fruit (like pears and apples) and fresh cut grass. BRU-1™ plays well with other hops, adding a tropical vibe to hops like Citra, Chinook and other fruit-forward varieties. Throw it in any crushable ale style, especially a hazy IPA — BRU-1™ has been shown to improve haze stability!
