Description
Simcoe Hop Pellets are a well-established dual-purpose variety grown in the USA and developed by the Select Botanicals Group. First released by Yakima Chief Ranches in 2002, Simcoe hops have become a firm favourite among UK brewers looking to add bold flavour and aroma to a wide range of craft beer styles.
Known for their high alpha acid content (11–15 %) and intense oil profile, Simcoe hop pellets deliver vibrant notes of grapefruit, passionfruit, pine, and a gentle earthiness. This combination makes them highly sought-after within the home brewing hops category across the UK.
Why Choose Simcoe Hops?
- Ideal for IPAs, double IPAs, India Black Ales and India Red Ales
- Often paired with Cascade, Chinook, Centennial, and Citra hops
- Delivers strong bitterness and complex aroma with a total oil content of 2.0–2.5 ml/100 g
