Technical Details & Test Data

WHAT ARE HOPS?

HOPS ARE A FLOWER.  FRESH HOPS, have to be dried within hours of harvest to preserve them.  Hops contain various compounds, including essential oils.  The most aromatic of these oils are prized by Craft brewers, but are highly volatile.  When you dry and process hops, a portion of the “fresh” aroma and flavors found out in the field are lost.    

Brewers primarily use DRIED, PROCESSED hops, (with a few seasonal exceptions if/when they can get fresh hops at harvest for a seasonal fresh hopped beer).

THIS IS DIFFERENT.  Glacier Hops Ranch captures the essence of this fresh aroma in the field at harvest and the experienced brewer adds it into the beer right before packaging.  The result is refreshingly aromatic.  Very different than using dried hops.  Decidedly complex.  

AN ANALOGY:  Think of the difference between FRESH BASIL and DRIED BASIL. FRESH IS ALWAYS BETTER, but it’s sometimes impractical to achieve.  

SUGGESTED CORRECT POSITIONING:  "When hops are the most aromatic in the field, Glacier Hops Ranch, takes freshly harvested hops and within hours, captures all of the fresh, aromatic oils through a proprietary steam-distillation process.  These aromatic fresh oils are set aside, and after the beer is fermented those freshly captured hop oils right back into the brewing vessels, just before packaging.  It’s fresh.  It’s natural.”
