Disappointed Review by Zane

Product Rating:

Was told this was similar to Cascade, but it's not at all. After tainting two of my brews with unacceptable flavor, I discarded the remainder.

Pleasant Late Hop Review by Aileinduinn

Product Rating:

I had a cascade brown ale that just didn't have the right hop aroma or flavor when fermentation was finished, and a friend recommended I dry hop for a week before bottling. All I had on hand was a pack of these. I added a quarter ounce to five gallons. One week of dry hopping added exactly the slightly green, fruity-floral, hop flavor that the brew was missing. I would agree, these are not a lot like Cascades. I would call it slightly more botanical and a bit like juniper (without the astringency) or orange marmelade. I'll use them again in lighter ales and lagers, but I wouldn't use them in large quantities.

Why give a bad review to a hop because it isn't the same as another hop? Ahtanum is an excellent hop, you just know how to use it.

reduced bitterness Review by Bridget

I originally bought these hops to use because a friend said they were less bitter than other hop varietals. And low and behold I found this to be true when I used the Ahtanum pellet hops.

These pellets are used in a great black IPA kit only available in November. They add great flavor & aroma - I love the Hopstache
