Longer Days

Spring 2022 Private Collection Seasonals

This strain is ideally suited to the production of West Coast-style American craft beers, especially pale, IPA, red, and specialties. Thorough attenuation, temperature tolerance, and good flocculation make this an easy strain to work with. Flavor is balanced neutral with mild ester formation at warmer temperatures, allowing hops, character malts, and flavorings to show through.

Try it out on our Mighty Redwood Imperial IPA or Drought Breaker American IPA beer recipe kits, available in both extract and all-grain editions. Order the West Coast IPA yeast now, and make an order note that you would like the recipe kit as well. We will add the kit to the order when the yeast arrives, using this yeast in place of the usual kit yeast.

This authentic Kӧlsch strain from one of Germany’s leading brewing schools has a rich flavor profile which accentuates a soft malt finish. It has Low or no detectable diacetyl production and will also ferment well at colder temperatures for fast lager type beers.

Try it out on our Springtime Kolsch beer recipe kit, available in both extract and all-grain editions. Order the Kolsch II yeast now, and make an order note that you would like the recipe kit as well. We will add the kit to the order when the yeast arrives, using this yeast in place of the usual kit yeast.

This blend includes a German ale strain with low ester formation and a dry, crisp finish. The Lactobacillus included produces moderate levels of acidity. The unique Brettanomyces strain imparts a critical earthy characteristic that is indicative of a true Berliner Weisse. When this blend is used, expect a slow start to fermentation as the yeast and bacteria in the blend is balanced to allow proper acid production. It generally requires 3-6 months of aging to fully develop flavor characteristics. Use this blend with worts containing extremely low hopping rates.

Fresh Hop Crop Arrival

Golding, Fuggle, Hallertau Blanc,

Perle, Tettnang, Magnum

As part of our Hop Freshness Program, this email is intended to alert you when the new crop of each type of hop arrives at our warehouse. Today, we are announcing the arrival of a big group of European pelletized 2021 hop crops!

Aromatic Characteristics

Aromas of flowers, herbs, and earth & grass.

About East Kent Golding

Beloved for its ability to play well with malt flavors, rather than dominate them. East Kent Golding is a mild, earthy hop typically used to bitter British-style beers. Its almost flowery tones have produced some of England's best bitters.

Aromatic Characteristics

Aromas of grass & earth, herbs and flowers.

About Fuggle

Fuggle is a classic English aroma hop with moderate bittering value. Pleasant wood and fruit tones find a home in session-style pale ales and English milds.

Aromatic Characteristics

Aromas of white grapes, citrus, tropical fruit and grass & earth.

About Hallertau Blanc

Hallertau Blanc is a new school German hop variety first released in 2012. Hallertau Blanc gets its name from the hop growing region in Germany as well as its unique tropical fruit aromas reminiscent of a good Sauvignon Blanc wine.

Aromatic Characteristics

Aromas of herbs, flowers and spices.

About Perle

Perle is a newer German variety, now also grown quite successfully in the U.S. It is a medium alpha hop with a very clean, almost minty bitterness and refreshing, spicy aroma. It has many of the aromatic characteristic of the traditional German "noble hops" (hallertau, saaz, tettnang, spalt), but has been bred with a higher bittering potential, making it more efficient as a bittering hop.

Aromatic Characteristics

Aromas of flowers, herbs and spices.

About Tettnang

Tettnang is one of the traditional "noble hops" from Germany, along with Hallertau, Saaz, and Spalt. It is named for a town in the far south of Germany where it is grown. It has a subtle bittering flavor, and aromas that include a mix of floral, fruity, herbal and spicy – fresh herbs, grass, dried flowers, citrus peel, black tea. It is ideally suited for use in Pilsner-style lagers, and similar beers. It is also used well in German Wheat beers and Belgian Ales.

Aromatic Characteristics

Aromas of herbs, spices and citrus.

About Magnum

Magnum is a German variety prized for its high bittering value combined with low cohumulone content, making it one of the go-to "clean bittering" hops for high IBU beers. It has an aroma that displays both spice and citrus. It fits into many craft brewer's bigger beers like Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale and Torpedo IPA. It is well suited for any high IBU beer where the brewer wishes to avoid a harsh, edgey and astringent finish.
