Where Are Simcoe Hops

Simcoe hops is a relatively new variety. It was released in 2000 by the Yakima Chief Ranch in Washington State. The Simcoe variety is used widely in the American craft brewing scene and with home brewers, and is known for its strong aromatic qualities.

What beers have Simcoe hops?

  • Pliny the Elder – Russian River.
  • 60 Minute IPA – Dogfish Head.
  • Double Simcoe IPA – Weyerbacher (single hopped)
  • Simcoe IPA – Buxton Brewery (single hopped)
  • Solo: Simcoe – Signature Brew.

Are Simcoe hops bitter?

With an alpha acid content of 12-14%, Simcoe is excellent for bittering, but is also used for aroma due to its pine, passion fruit, earthy, and citrus characteristics. The duality of Simcoe makes it ideal for pale ales, IPAs, American ales, and Double IPAs.
