Topaz™ Hops (2025)

TOPAZ™ HOPS Australian Hops Originally selected for its insanely high alpha acid content, Topaz™ was initially sold predominantly into the extract market. Unexpectedly, dried hop cones presented for sensory analysis at trade shows repeatedly received positive feedback from brewers, prompting investigation into the flavor potential of Topaz™. Now, craft brewers regularly use early additions for a pleasant bitterness and late in large doses for more exotic lychee and lighter tropical fruit flavors that really shine in a sessional setting. Topaz™ features is some notable beers, including Furphy and Aether’s All Australian Pale Ale.
