Mount Hood US Hops
$9.95
Tax included
Mount Hood is a famous US aroma hop bred from the German Hallertauer variety, and is related to Ultra, Liberty, and Crystal.
Crafted in Oregon in 1983 and named after the famous volcano, it offers spicy aroma and clean bittering.
Crosby Type-90 Hop Pellets are a softer “craft pellet”. These pellets are approximately 20% less dense than industry standard pellets. The soft pellet comes apart quickly when used as a dry hop, and provides better hop utilization in the kettle, whirlpool and fermenter.
The low pelletizing temperatures at Crosby Hop Farm also work to preserve hop oils, aromatics, and alpha.
