From One Trick Pony to Cryo Fresh: Epic’s Next Hop Experiment

For more than 20 years, Epic has had a fairly uncomplicated obsession: hops.

Not hops as decoration. Not hops because IPA happens to be fashionable. Hops as an ingredient worth pulling apart, comparing, experimenting with and occasionally pushing far beyond what seemed sensible at the time.

That philosophy has led us through new hop varieties, new ways of using them and, over the years, some genuinely new hop technology.

Now it has led us to Cryo Fresh.

With Electric Pony IPA, we are using Yakima Chief Hops’ new Cryo Fresh Mosaic for the first time. This is also the first commercial b**r brewed with Cryo Fresh in New Zealand.

But Electric Pony didn’t appear out of nowhere. It sits at the end of a pretty long trail of hop experiments.

Super happy with how this b**r has turned out using the new Cryo Fresh Mosaic hops from Yakima Chief Hops Part of the series. It reminds me of drinking b**rs in Yakima during hop harvest. Cryer Malt **r
