Hop Frontier” maximizes hop aromathrough a scientific approach
Hop Frontier, released in 2021 as Far Yeast Brewing’s new standard product, is the first beer in Japan to implement the latest hop theory and advanced brewing methods to maximize hop aroma components through a scientific approach. The beer is brewed using a scientific approach to maximize the aroma compounds of hops.
Focusing on the Survivables, which are components that are believed to achieve a high aromatic impact in the finished beer and are not lost during the brewing process, we are exploring brewing methods that effectively extract these aromatic components and are taking on the challenge of maximizing hop aroma.
The latest hop oil is used to create a low-alcohol, yet highly drinkable beer.
Hop Frontier Micro IPA, the latest limited edition of Hop Frontier, is based on the hop theory of Hop Frontier, and retains the hoppy and juicy aroma and flavor of the rich, tropical hop aroma,We took on the challenge of designing a drinkable IPA with low alcohol content by using the latest hop oils in the development stage provided by Yakima Chief Hops’ hop innovation program “FWD“.
As with Hop Frontier Juicy IPA, we used Cryo Pop® Blend and Idaho7 to extract the maximum amount of hot-side hop aroma, and this time we used the latest hop oil “YCH701_MM”, which is in the development stage at Yakima Chief Hops®. YCH701_Mosaic and YCH701_Idaho7 oils were used. By adding the hop oils during fermentation, we were able to bring out a unique aromatic component that is intense and complex through biotransformation, which occurs when the yeast comes into contact with the extracted components of hops.
The saccharification program has also been modified to achieve a firm body despite the low alcohol content, delivering a drinkability that is hard to believe at 2.5% and a complex aromatic experience that includes citrus, tropical, peach, and more.
Far Yeast Hop Frontier Micro IPA will be available in limited quantities at the official Far Yeast Brewing Web Store from 12:00 pm on Tuesday, June 18. Purchases made through the official Web Store and shipments to beer bars, restaurants, and liquor stores nationwide will begin sequentially on Wednesday, June 19.
