Cascade
Characteristics
Cascade was developed in the USDA breeding program at Oregon State University and released as a U.S. aroma variety in 1972. It is characterized by its dark green elongated cone with an aroma that is of medium strength often described as a distinctive floral, grapefruit-like character. Cascade is the definitive hop for American craft brews.
Columbus
Characteristics
The current Super High Alpha varieties, which include the names Columbus, Tomahawk and Zeus (CTZ) have the same female parent as Nugget, making them at least half sisters to Nugget. The CTZ varieties are currently used extensively for beer bittering. However, CTZ’s are losing favor due to their very poor storage characteristics and susceptibility to mildews.
