Description
Independence is a proprietary blend of hops by Yakima Chief Hops.
Independence is an aroma hop that is typically used in only late boil additions, including dry hopping.
Paying homage to the classic hops, Independence blend merges old world with new world spirit giving a truly American aroma and flavor profile. Bringing forth tobacco, earthy, pine and grassy notes with citrus and herbs to support the aroma profile, Independence symbolizes the pioneer spirit carried through the many generations of growers in the Pacific Northwest.
