Luminosa® - Indie Hops T90 pellets 2025

We're proud to have partnered with Indie Hops and Loughran Brewers Select to bring world class hops to homebrewers in the UK. These hops are used by the likes of Verdant, Deya, Sierra Nevada and Russian River breweries. They are aren't available anywhere else in the UK in homebrew quantities. Country of Origin USA Harvest Year 2025 Alpha Acid 9-12% Type T90 pellets Characteristics Peach-Mango Lemonade, Orange peel, Boysenberry, Papaya, Guava Luminosa® was first launched with the 2022 Harvest as part of the Indie Hops Flavor Project. This hop can trace its origins back to 2013, when Shaun Townsend of Oregon State University's hop breeding program collected open pollinated seed from a Sorachi Ace female. 'Luminosa' is Latin for 'full of brightness', so expect bright fresh fruit notes from this hop - think peach-mango lemonade, candied orange peel, boysenberry, papaya and guava. Luminosa® has very little resin/pine characteristics, so is incredibly versatile, and able to bring zippy top end citrus notes to beers. Luminosa® works beautifully in West Coast IPAs, NEIPAs and Pale Ales, as well as lagers, Helles, and Pilsners Check out the Luminosa® brewing notes here.
