Cluster Hops - Fresh Pellets - 1oz

Cluster hops are one of the oldest American hop varieties and have been widely used in brewing since the late 1800s. Grown primarily in the Pacific Northwest, Cluster hops have long been valued for their balanced bitterness and subtle aroma.

Brewers often describe Cluster as producing mild floral spice, herbal character, light fruit notes, and soft woody undertones. This balanced and traditional hop profile makes Cluster especially well suited for classic American beer styles that require gentle bitterness and moderate hop flavor.

Cluster performs well as a bittering hop while also contributing subtle flavor when added earlier in the boil.

Cluster hops are commonly used in traditional American brewing where smooth bitterness and subtle hop flavor are desired.

Ideal for:

• American Lager
• Blonde Ale
• Cream Ale
• California Common
• Historical Beer Styles

Cluster pairs well with classic hop varieties such as Cascade, Liberty, and Willamette to create balanced hop character in traditional American beers.

• Add early in the boil to produce smooth, clean bitterness
• Use mid-boil additions to build subtle floral hop flavor
• Add small late boil additions for light herbal aroma
• Store sealed in the freezer to preserve freshness and hop oils

Cluster works well with traditional American hop varieties when brewing classic lagers, cream ales, and historical beer styles.
