Triumph Hops: Unleashing a Fruity Punch to Your Brew

Triumph hops are a relatively new American variety, bred by the USDA Hop Breeding and Genetics Program, that has quickly gained popularity for its bursting fruity aroma and clean bitterness. Released in 2018, it boasts a lineage of Nugget, Brewers Gold, East Kent Goldings, and Hallertau Mittelfrüh, combining classic European notes with modern fruitiness.

Here's what makes Triumph hops a hop-tastic addition to your next brew:

  • Aroma: Immerse yourself in a sunny orchard with Triumph hops. Expect an explosion of ripe peaches, oranges, lime, with hints of apple and candy. Subtle floral and spicy notes add complexity and depth.
  • Flavor: The fruit fiesta continues on the palate, featuring juicy peaches, apricots, citrus zest, and a touch of spice. The bitterness is moderate and clean, creating a perfectly balanced and refreshing character.
  • Alpha Acid Content: With an alpha acid range of 9-12%, Triumph hops offer a punch for bittering while still allowing their vibrant aroma and flavor to shine.
  • Versatility: These hops are like chameleons in the brewhouse. They excel in Pale Ales and IPAs, adding their fruity sunshine. But they also play nicely in Lagers, Pilsners, Kolsches, and even SMaSH beers, bringing a unique fruit-forward twist.
  • Pairing: To craft harmonious brews, team up Triumph with other hop varieties that complement its fruity profile. Think Citra, Mosaic, Amarillo, Galaxy, Cascade, or even Simcoe.

Tips for using Triumph hops:

  • Late additions: To preserve their delicate aroma and flavor, use Triumph hops in late boil additions or dry hopping.
  • Moderation is key: With their intense fruitiness, a little goes a long way. Over-using Triumph hops can easily overpower a beer. Start with smaller amounts and adjust to your taste.
  • Experiment and have fun! Triumph hops are versatile and lend themselves to creative brewing. Don't be afraid to try different combinations and techniques to discover your unique brewing masterpiece.

Triumph hops are a fantastic choice for brewers seeking to add a touch of vibrant fruitiness and balanced bitterness to their creations. Their adaptability and refreshing character make them a welcome addition to a variety of beer styles. So, next time you're brewing up something special, consider giving Triumph hops a try – you might just discover your new favorite hop buddy!
