Description

Cascade Cryo Hops Cascade Cryo Hops® offer a concentrated expression of the classic American hop that defined the craft beer movement. First released in 1972, Cascade became a cornerstone of American Pale Ales thanks to its signature floral and grapefruit character. With Cryo Hops® processing, the essential lupulin is preserved and intensified, delivering a cleaner, punchier aroma with less vegetal matter—perfect for dry hopping or late kettle additions. Cascade Cryo Hops Overview Flavors: Grapefruit, floral, spicy, citrus zest Primary Usage: Aroma (also suited for dual-purpose use) Best Beer Styles: Pale Ale, IPA, Blonde Ale, Amber Ale, American Wheat Similar Varieties: Centennial, Amarillo, Chinook, Comet Background Developed by Oregon State University and released by the USDA in the early 1970s, Cascade is a cross between Fuggle and a Russian Serebrianka-derived male. It rose to prominence with Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and remains one of the most iconic American hop varieties. The Cryo Hops® version, created through Yakima Chief’s LupuLN2® process, allows brewers to highlight Cascade’s grapefruit and floral qualities in an ultra-refined format that enhances aroma without excessive green matter.
