WHAT ARE AMERICAN NOBLE HOPS™?
AMERICAN NOBLE HOPS pellets are designed to share traditional noble hop variety characteristics, including high aromatics and low alpha acids, while retaining regional hop characteristics that make them unique to America’s Pacific Northwest. AMERICAN NOBLE HOPS pellets are a high-quality, consistent solution for providing nuanced flavors and aromas from varieties like Cascade, Citra® Brand, Mosaic® Brand and Simcoe® Brand, making them perfect for Pilsner, Kölsch, Blonde, Saison and/or Sour beer styles.

INTRODUCING AMERICAN NOBLE HOPS™ INTO BEER
MASH: Some brewers have found success using AMERICAN NOBLE HOPS in the mash to aid runoff.
KETTLE: Late kettle additions are preferred because the low alpha content will not provide enough bittering and the aromatics will be boiled off.
WHIRLPOOL: The whirlpool provides a good blend of the aromatic addition and the ability to remove vegetal material before it enters the fermenter.
FERMENTER: Subtle aromatic characteristics can be achieved through dry hopping. An increased diacetyl rest may be required due to the hop creep phenomenon.

BENEFITS OF UTILIZING AMERICAN NOBLE HOPS™
AMERICAN NOBLE HOPS analytically appear similar to traditional low-alpha varieties, however, the bract itself contains many other variety-specific brewing characteristics. AMERICAN NOBLE HOPS contribute pleasant noble bitterness with the unique aroma of higherresin Northwest varieties due to the extraction of water soluble flavor compounds such as flavonoids, glycosides and polyphenols.
