Talus® hops are a dynamic American variety developed by the Hop Breeding Company and released in 2020. Bred from Sabro® and open pollination, Talus® hops offer a bold aroma profile with a unique blend of fruit, floral, and woody notes. Their expressive character makes them a standout choice for brewers looking to push the boundaries of hop-forward beer styles.
Talus® hops deliver a vibrant mix of pink grapefruit, citrus zest, dried roses, and pine resin. Hints of tropical fruit and sage add depth and complexity. With alpha acids typically ranging from 7% to 9%, Talus® hops are suitable for both bittering and aroma applications.
These hops work especially well in IPAs, pale ales, and experimental styles. When used in dry hopping or late boil additions, Talus® hops bring out their full aromatic potential. Their smooth bitterness and layered aroma contribute to a balanced and memorable drinking experience.
Brewers choose Talus® hops for their bold personality and versatility. They pair well with other expressive varieties like Mosaic®, Citra®, or Sabro®, allowing for creative and complex hop combinations. Talus® hops also perform well in single-hop beers, where their unique aroma can take center stage.
In the field, Talus® hops are known for their strong agronomic traits and consistent yields. Grown primarily in the Pacific Northwest, they benefit from ideal conditions and careful cultivation. This ensures a reliable supply of high-quality cones for brewers worldwide.
Novi is a well-balanced beer inspired by the Novi Special 1940s racing car and the Novi Team engines developed in Novi, Michigan. Its colour scheme nods to Bobby Unser’s ‘Novi Special’. The beer itself pours a delightfully hazy gold with a frothy white head, releasing punchy aromas of lemon, pineapple, and peach. The mouthfeel is decadent, with flavours of candied fruit and melon ensconced in a pillowy, creamy body, finished with just a touch of bitterness.
