Cascade Hops are a classic American aroma hop known for their bright citrus, floral, and grapefruit notes. Originally bred in the 1950s and released in the 1970s, Cascade helped define the American craft beer revolution.
Given its moderate alpha acids and a distinctive citrus-grapefruit aroma profile, Cascade is great for late boil additions and dry hopping. It delivers a crisp, zesty character that’s perfect for Pale Ales, IPAs, and more.
Even today with the abundance of modern IPA hops, Cascade remains one of the most beloved and versatile hops in American brewing, lending its signature punch to everything from classic ales to modern hop-forward recipes.
