Cascade is the most popular variety in craft brewing and is known for having a unique floral, spicy and citrus character with hints of grapefruit. Cascade has a balanced bittering potential.

The production begins by cryogenic separation of what they have named LupuLN2 and the remaining debittered leaf content

LupuLN2 is the concentration of resins and aromatic oils that make up the plants lupulin. This allows for heavy, late addition hopping to provide intense hop flavour and aroma, while avoiding astringency. Using Cryo Hops at about half the dosage, by weight, provides a more intense juicy and resinous character, than its whole hop counterpart.
