Roy Farms Simcoe®

YCR 14. A premium hop released through Yakima Chief Ranches in 2000. All rights reserved.

OFF THE HOOK ON THE WEST COAST.

The unique complexity and smooth bitterness have made Simcoe a top hop variety for home and craft breweries alike. The rise in its popularity started with brewers on the west coast with IPAs and double IPAs due to its versatility and strong aroma characteristics. This dual-propose hop is described both as fruity and earthy, which is why the love for Simcoe continues year after the year. Buy Simcoe today.
