Description

Simcoe T90 Hop Pellets are a popular American hop known for their distinctive pine, citrus and grapefruit character, supported by stone fruit, tropical fruit and woody notes.

Released in 2000, Simcoe has become a favourite in modern hop-forward brewing. Its combination of relatively high alpha acid and expressive aroma makes it a versatile dual-purpose hop for both bittering and aromatic additions.

Aroma & Flavour

Simcoe can contribute:

  • Pine
  • Grapefruit
  • Citrus
  • Stone fruit
  • Tropical fruit
  • Woody notes

Its combination of pine and bright fruit character makes Simcoe particularly useful when you want a bold and distinctive American hop profile.

Brewing with Simcoe Hops

Simcoe works well as a dual-purpose hop. Its alpha acid level makes it suitable for bittering additions, while later additions can showcase more of its pine, grapefruit and fruit-driven character.

Late-boil, whirlpool and dry-hop additions can produce a strong aromatic contribution. Simcoe also pairs particularly well with other American hop varieties when building layered hop profiles.

Suitable Beer Styles

Simcoe is well suited to:

  • American Pale Ale
  • India Pale Ale (IPA)
  • West Coast IPA
  • Double IPA
  • Hazy IPA
  • American Amber Ale
  • Porter
  • Stout

Hop Substitutes

If Simcoe is unavailable, possible substitutes include Comet, Chinook and Mosaic. These hops can provide some of the pine, citrus, fruit and aromatic character associated with Simcoe.

However, each hop has its own flavour profile and alpha acid level. Therefore, adjust your recipe and hop quantities as required when making a substitution.
