X331 Hops

Post by Beer-lord »

I can't buy hops but I can think about them.
Saw X331 on Farmhouse's site, http://www.farmhousebrewingsupply.com/x ... lets-4-oz/ and was surprised by the description:
“Fresh tropical citrus, with a hint of wafting joint smoke from around the block”.

High total oil of about 3.5ml/100g of hop material.

It’s a very “clean” hop, without the tendency that many potent hops have to throw diesel oil/machine oil notes, or extreme “BO” or “cattiness”. Just a refreshing medley of luscious hop character.
Might we worth trying 4 oz in the future. Plus, aren't hops semi related to cannabis?

In my next life, I want the job where I have to test brew with new hops. I think I could do it but it's more likely I'll come back as a hop instead!

I could be wrong, but my guess it's that they're talking about meat.

FWIW:

Apollo hops are pretty dopey in my experience.

The Exp 7270 fermenting has some of that dopiness in it's aroma too.
