Talus Hops - Fresh Pellets - 1oz

Talus is a modern American hop variety released in 2020 by the Hop Breeding Company. It is a daughter of Sabro Brand HBC 438, and its bold flavor profile draws directly from that adventurous lineage.

Brewers often describe Talus hops as producing big aromas of pink grapefruit, citrus rinds, dried roses, pine resin, tropical fruits, and sage. These unique and impactful aromas remain throughout the brewing process, making it one of the most distinctive new hop varieties available.

Talus performs especially well in whirlpool additions and dry hopping where its complex aromatic profile can fully develop. What you smell in the raw hops translates directly into the finished beer.

Talus hops are commonly used in modern hop-forward styles where unique aroma and bold flavor differentiate the finished beer.

Ideal for:

• American IPA
• West Coast IPA
• Pale Ale
• Double IPA
• Hoppy Lager

Talus pairs well with hops such as Citra, Simcoe, and Mosaic to create complex hop profiles with unique citrus and herbal complexity.

• Use late boil additions to enhance grapefruit and sage hop flavor
• Add during whirlpool or hop stand to maximize rose and pine resin aroma
• Dry hop to develop bold pink grapefruit and tropical aromatics
• Blend with Cascade, Centennial, or Chinook for layered complexity
• Store sealed in the freezer to preserve freshness and hop oils

Talus stands out as a single hop or blended with Cascade, Centennial, and Chinook for layered hop profiles in modern IPAs and pale ales.
