Message radarsock beers 1226 º places 112 º 18:34 Thu 7/27/2017 What has been your favorite hop to use as a dry-hop? Mosaic, Citra, Ahtanum, Columbus, and Amarillo for me. Any dry-hop combinations that users have noted for its incredible ability to create cohesiveness and a rounder flavor profile? Ahtanum and Columbus as a dry-hop had been a pretty decent combo I used in the past. Loved that candied grapefruit character from an Ahtanum mixing with the assertiveness from the black licorice note from a Columbus.

Message b3shine P beers 12211 º places 372 º 19:24 Thu 7/27/2017 Mosaic, followed closely by Citra. Paired together, they’re even better.

Message ebone1988 beers 2504 º places 24 º 19:46 Thu 7/27/2017 Citra and Mosaic are my favorites. But I really enjoy Amarillo in a Saison or Sour.

Message b3shine P beers 12211 º places 372 º 20:48 Thu 7/27/2017 Falconer’s Flight isn’t a single hop, it’s a blend of several hops: http://www.hopslist.com/hops/dual-purpose-hops/falconer-s-flight/

I guess I thought everyone knew what I meant? I should clarify next time.

Nelson Sauvin comes to mind too.

Nelson Sauvin comes to mind too. Sauvin is good but too musty for me, I fear. They’re almost exclusively tip-top for wine barrel aged saisons and very little else. I don’t really like them too much in single hop IPAs or even as a fruit expression balancing other hops in a DIPA. They produce some really bizarre flavors.
