Wet-Hop Ale

Every year, the Mad Scientists make a pilgrimage to the hop motherland during harvest time.

The quest is to find the ripest, juiciest cones to put into SENSI. This year, Amarillo and Cascade were calling our name. Crack open SENSI 2015 and be transported to the hop fields… it’s Mad Science.

Like most any plant or spice, hop flowers begin to wilt soon after they are harvested. To preserve the essential flavors, most hops used year round have been dried and pelletized. Beers made with dried hops and pellets are obviously amazing, but there are certain intrinsic qualities and flavors of wet-hops that are inevitably altered in the hop kilns. That’s why we rush-deliver mountains of just picked hops from bine to beer in under 24 hours. Crack open SENSI and be transported out to the hop fields. SENSI is that hop harvest captured in a can.
