Variety Details

Azacca combines ripe mango, papaya and pineapple with orange, grapefruit, pine resin and fresh grass. Its high alpha-acid and oil content supports both bitterness and substantial late-hop aroma. It is especially useful in pale ales, IPAs and other hop-forward beers where layered tropical fruit and citrus are desired.

Beers and Pellets were evaluated using our Sensory Plus™ Trained Panel. Beers were dry hopped in a standard 2-Row Pale Ale at 2lb/barrel for 72 hours.
