Cascade (hop variety)

Cascade is a popular hop variety used primarily in brewing beer. Developed in Oregon in the 1950s, it offers a balanced blend of floral, citrus, and herbal flavors, making it favored for various beer styles, especially pale ales and IPAs. Cascade hops are known for their moderate bitterness and aromatic qualities, contributing a fresh, zesty character to beers. They have become one of the defining hops in craft brewing, and their versatility makes them a staple among brewers looking to enhance the flavor profile of their creations.
