dry hop
Brew without heat
Dry hop is a brewing technique where hops are added to beer after fermentation rather than during the boil.
This process extracts aromatic compounds without adding bitterness, giving the beer intense floral, citrus, or piney hop character.
Craft brewers particularly favor dry hopping for IPAs and pale ales.
This IPA was dry hopped with Citra and Mosaic for tropical fruit notes.
As a verb: We dry hop for three days before packaging.
