Description

Amarillo Cryo Hops Amarillo® Cryo Hops® are the concentrated lupulin powder of the original Amarillo hop, developed by Virgil Gamache Farms and released in the early 2000s. By using Yakima Chief’s LupuLN2® process, these pellets double down on Amarillo’s signature orange-forward citrus character, delivering a potent burst of tangerine, grapefruit, and floral aromas with less vegetal matter. Perfect for late additions and dry hopping where expressive aroma is key. Amarillo Cryo Hops Overview Flavors: Orange, tangerine, grapefruit, melon, floral, tropical Primary Usage: Aroma (excellent for whirlpool and dry hop) Best Beer Styles: IPA, Pale Ale, Hazy IPA, Wheat Beer, Blonde Ale Similar Varieties: Centennial, Cascade, Citra, El Dorado Background Originally discovered as a wild hop in Washington state, Amarillo was developed and commercialized by Virgil Gamache Farms. Its popularity surged thanks to its bright citrus profile and balanced bitterness. The Cryo Hops® version isolates the aromatic lupulin glands, allowing brewers to use fewer pellets while achieving more intense aroma with minimal astringency. Amarillo remains a go-to hop for juicy, citrus-forward beers that still want a touch of floral complexity. AMARILLO® is a trademark owned by Virgil Gamache Farms, Inc.
