Golden State Hops

This is 2019 Chinook. These hops were grown right here in the Central Valley, Fresno! They were harvested and processed last week, with an alpha acid of 13.3 and beta of 2.8. Last year they were reviewed and taste tested. Aroma characteristics were tropical fruit, apple/pear and stone fruit. Pungency was mild to medium. I would expect this seasons crop to be more robust due to a more mature plant. The overall experience of this Chinook was unexpected and incredibly pleasant! If you would like to give them a try you can order online at goldenstatehop.com or contact me directly. Thank you to Marshall for the help.

Golden State Hops will be at the Central Valley Brewers Guild mixer This coming Saturday, downtown Fresno. With the overwhelming inquiries from home brewers There will be special 5oz. bags of 2019 Fresno grown Magnum, Cascade and Chinook available for purchase, harvested and processed days before the event. Hats will also be available. Stickers will be free! All internal hops quality information will also be available. More details in the next few days.
