Fresh hop beer. Fresh (or “wet”) hops go from the bine to the kettle within hours, never kilned. The figures below are for the dried hop; fresh ones carry the same oils in a greener, brighter form, and brewers use several times the weight.

In the order Cloudburst Brewing lists them: The Last Splash IPA | 6.5% ABV | 55 IBU It’s our last wet/fresh hop IPA of the season so we decided to CANNONBALL!!!! into this recipe and use THREE DIFFERENT HOP VARIETIES. We’ve got wet Mosaic and Wet Krush from Perrault Farms, combined with some Fresh Kilned Comet from Loza Farms. The end result is arguably our most complex beer of the season, with notes of yellow pineapple, fruit punch, or...

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.
