Master 2022 hop flavors


to create the greatest beers
Welcome to the Hop Harvest Guide
Each hop variety is unique and with each harvest year we see a variance in the respective aroma and flavor profile of a variety.
Our variety guide helps you cope with these changes in especially hop-intensive beers in the brewery. By looking at the aroma
profiles of your varieties compared to the average profile, you can account for strong deviations and adjust your recipe in the brewery.
For the first time, our graduates of the Hop Flavorist Master Course were involved in the creation of this guide.
