Columbus hop cone

Columbus

Columbus is prized for its assertive bitterness and bold, pungent aroma. Known for earthy, spicy, and dank resin notes with hints of citrus, Columbus delivers a strong backbone to IPAs and other hop-forward beers. With high alpha acids and a robust profile, it’s a favorite for bittering and dry hopping alike, adding depth and intensity to a wide range of styles.

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.
