In the order Cloudburst Brewing lists them: Fair Fight DDH West Coast IPA | 7.2% ABV | 65 IBU Ok, so, we aren’t “fighters” per se. Like, the violent, physical type. You probably already knew that. BUT, we do believe in fighting for what’s right. You also probably knew this too. With a trip to Georgia in our near future for the Mighty Fine West Coast IPA Festival at Good Word Brewing, we were reminded of…Stacey Abram’s Fair Fight organiz...

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.
