In the order Cloudburst Brewing lists them: CHUNDERDOME IPA IPA | 6.5% ABV | 60 IBU SNOW. IS ON. THE MOUNTAINS! Therefore, you must hit the slopes. It’s quite simple. There are no rules. Just shred, rip, slash, gash, and gnash through that frothy stash. And when you’re finished, assuming you make it out alive – recharge and rehydrate (kinda) with this cruiser of an IPA charged with Simcoe, Mosaic , & Citra, plus a Columbus Cryo kicker a...

New to hop talk? What these words mean
- Bitterness (alpha acid)
- How much bite a hop gives when it's boiled. Under 5% is gentle, 13%+ is a bruiser. It's why a West Coast IPA snaps and a pilsner doesn't.
- Aroma oil
- The smelly part of the hop — where the citrus, pine and tropical fruit come from. More oil, more punch when it's added late or dry-hopped.
- Myrcene, humulene…
- The main oils. Lots of myrcene reads fruity and resinous; humulene and caryophyllene read woody, herbal, spicy.
- Aroma / bittering / dual purpose
- What brewers mostly use the hop for: smell, bite, or both.
- Fresh (wet) hop
- Hops straight from the field into the beer, same day, never dried. Only at harvest, late August into October.
- Cryo, CGX, LupoMax, Incognito
- The same hop, processed: concentrated powder or extract, for more aroma with less vegetal taste.
