Chinook hop cone on bine

Chinook

Chinook is a robust, dual-purpose hop known for its powerful combination of bright citrus, pine, and spice. With a punchy grapefruit backbone and layers of resin and subtle herbal notes, Chinook adds character to everything from classic IPAs to dark ales. Its high alpha acids deliver firm bitterness, while its complex aroma makes it a favorite for dry hopping in IPAs.

Sensory Analysis

Amarillo is a game-changer for our brews. The bright citrus punch especially the orange and grapefruit notes, bring our IPA to life. It's smooth and versatile and delivers the  bold aroma we love.
