Hops 101

The hop plant is a vine that produces a flower (called a hop cone) that is prized for the oils inside. It provides beer with aromas, flavor and bitterness. It also acts as a preservative, which was its original use in beer.

Hop to It!

As we discussed in Hops 101, hops are one of the four main ingredients used to make beer. But it is also important to note that the point at which hops are added to the beer during the brewing process has a profound effect on the final flavor and aroma of the brew.
