Azacca is a popular dual-purpose hop variety known for its vibrant tropical and citrusy flavor profile. Here’s a breakdown of its key characteristics:
Flavor & Aroma:
- Tropical Fruits: Mango, papaya, and pineapple dominate the flavor, giving Azacca a distinct tropical vibe.
- Citrus Notes: Hints of orange, lemon, and grapefruit add a bright citrusy edge.
- Spicy & Herbal Undertones: Subtle pine and grassy notes, along with some peppery spiciness, balance out the fruit-forward flavors.
Typical Uses:
- Aroma & Dry Hopping: Azacca is often used late in the boil or for dry hopping, making it a favorite in IPAs, Pale Ales, and other hop-forward styles where aroma is key.
- Bittering: It has moderate alpha acids (around 13-16%) and can be used for bittering, though it's more commonly celebrated for its aromatic contributions.
Beer Styles:
- Perfect for IPAs, Pale Ales, Saisons, and American Ales, but it also works well in experimental and tropical-themed brews.
Azacca hops are prized for their bold fruit flavors, making them ideal for brewers looking to craft beers with juicy, tropical aromas and flavors.
