Description
New Zealand's Cascade™ hop with remarkable citrus and tropical fruit characteristics., and works beautifully across West Coast IPAs and NEIPAs, as well as APAs, Pale Ales, Lagers & Pilsners.
Ancestry Originates from an early US breeding program (circa 1956). It was bred from crossing an English Fuggle with a male selection believed to have been a crossing of Fuggle and the Russian variety Serebrianka. Through New Zealand selection, agronomics and 'terroir' the flavour and aroma characteristics have altered markedly from the original cultivar to no longer be considered the same variety.
Beer Styles: West Coast IPAs; New England/hazy/juicy IPAs; NZIPAs; APAs; pale ales; lagers; pilsners.
Carbon Footprint: As a weighted average across all hop varieties, Clayton Hops™ T90 Pellets - independently measured by BX of London - have a carbon footprint of 3.75 kg CO₂e, or, for benchmarking purposes, 3.18 kg CO₂e (composting emissions are typically not mentioned in industry benchmarks).
NZ Cascade™ now available as Amplifire Fresh Hop Oil from Clayton Hops™ in New Zealand, delivering intense hop expression while reducing waste and beer loss and improving brewhouse efficiency.
FASTER - Clayton Hops™ use modern and high-capacity on-farm harvesting systems, combined with a cutting-edge advanced hops pelletising complex. This ensures that Clayton's hops are picked in their prime and then pelletised and packaged quickly - a level of on-site infrastructure which is unique in the New Zealand hops industry.
FRESHER - Clayton Hops™ hop cones are pelletised and packaged very soon after harvest, ensuring ultimate freshness, and stored temperature controlled to preserve quality.
BETTER - Harvesting hops in their prime and processing them quickly results in superior quality. Clayton Hops has investing in a world-class pelletising facility with an enclosed and protected environment to ensure minimal exposure to oxygen and contaminants.
