In the order Cloudburst Brewing lists them: Exit Velocity DDH West Coast IPA | 6.8% ABV | 68 IBU Y’all keep crushing our West Coast IPAs like a low spin rate fastball right down the pipe, so here’s another one for you to barrel up. It’s hopped with a lineup of 4 key players – Mosaic, Amarillo, Chinook & Cascade. Mosaic is one helluva sweet spot. Amarillo is the perfect launch angle. Chinook hits hard.

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.
