Anchovy Hop Profile

Anchovy is a new experimental variety from Segal Ranch, given its controversial name by Matt Storm and Brian Strumke from Seattle's Fast Fashion Brewing. No, it doesn't smell like anchovies, quite the contrary! Anchovy's aroma has been described as watermelon hard candy, raspberry, and pine. This uniquely experimental hop is perfect for your next pilot brew — try some Anchovy for yourself and brew up something that's anything but fishy.

See What Folks are Saying About Anchovy Hops

“Anchovy is an experimental hop developed by Segal Ranch in Yakima, Washington. It’s quite aromatic, we get notes of watermelon hard candy, raspberry, and pine. Segal is known for growing legendary cascade but they have a wonderful R&D program as well and we sponsored this hop after doing sensory on a few experimental varietals from them last year during hop selection." - Quote from GruntingGrowler.com
