Developed in Washington State by the USDA breeding program, Chinook hops were initially bred for their bittering qualities in 1985. Over time, they have evolved into a versatile, dual purpose hop suitable for a wide range of beer styles.

Flavour: These hops deliver noticeable grassy and tropical notes, with bright grapefruit flavors and a slight spice that enhances their clean bitterness. The fresh hop version intensifies these characteristics, providing a fresher, more dynamic taste.

Aroma: The aroma is robust, featuring grassy, tropical, and grapefruit notes with a hint of spice.
