Jester Hop Pairings
- Mosaic: Mosaic hops are known for their tropical fruit and berry flavours, making them an excellent match for Jester hops. The combination can yield a beer with intensified fruity notes and added complexity.
- Citra: Citra hops provide strong citrus flavours, including grapefruit, lime, and tangerine. Pairing them with Jester can accentuate the fruity character while adding a refreshing citrus touch.
- Simcoe: Simcoe hops offer a blend of piney, earthy, and fruity notes. Combining them with Jester hops can create a more balanced beer with an interesting mix of herbal, fruity, and piney flavours.
- Amarillo: Amarillo hops have a distinct orange citrus flavour, which can complement the tropical and berry fruitiness of Jester hops. This pairing can create a beer with a lively and zesty citrus character.
- Cascade: Cascade hops are known for their floral and citrusy profile. Pairing them with Jester can yield a beer with a pronounced fruity and floral aroma, making for a refreshing and fragrant drinking experience.
- East Kent Goldings: If you want to stay within the realm of British hops, East Kent Goldings can add a more traditional earthy and floral aspect to your beer, balancing the fruity character of Jester hops.
