Sorachi Ace Pellet Hops

Description

Description

Originally developed in the 1980s in Japan for Sapporo, recent years have seen Sorachi Ace gaining acreage in the Pacific Northwest. Its parentage includes Brewers Gold, Saaz, and Beikei No. 2. With a potent alpha acid level (11-12.5%), Sorachi is a more than capable bittering hop, while its unique aromatics make it welcome in styles that embrace bright citrus character: saison, witbier, and exotic riffs on IPA. Sorachi Ace is distinctive with a suggestion of dill and unmistakable overtones of lemon, including wood polish, fruit pith, and Lemon Zinger tea. Similar variety is Southern Cross.

ACID & OIL COMPOSITION BREAKDOWN

  • Alpha Acid: 10.0 – 15.2%
  • Beta Acid: 6.0 – 10.2%
  • Co-Humulone: 20 – 25
  • Total Oils: 2.5 – 4.5mL/100g

All hops are nitrogen flushed to preserve freshness.
