Columbus | CTZ | Pellet Hops

    Description

    Columbus, or CTZ (Columbus, Tomahawk, and Zeus), is a high alpha varietal with a neutral bitterness and intense aroma. A true dual-purpose hop that works very well for bittering, but shines just as easily as a late addition. CTZ hops have an earthy, spicy character that is great for bittering. But when used as an aroma addition, you'll find more floral and citrus notes come out that can be very pungent. Columbus is a perfect choice for IPAs, Pales, Imperial Ales, Hazys, Stouts, and Lagers.

    Hop Statistics:
    Alpha Acids: 14.0 – 16.0%
    Beta Acids: 4.0 – 5.5%
    Alpha-Beta Ratio: 2.55 – 4
    Cohumulone: (% of alpha acids): 30 – 35%
    Total Oils in mls per 100 grams dried: 1.5 – 2.0

        Very good

        I've made a number of Pale ale and IPA beers and the high alpha content is perfect especially when trying to make high SG beers (that tend to run a bit sweet)

        Great price but a little heavy in the earthy/grassy profile

        This batch was a little on the grassy side

        Best, most versatile hop

        Best hop to use when bancing all those fruity flavors of other hop varieties

        Love Columbus

        Columbus is a great all rounder if you want to use it in an American recipe, from bettering additions to whirlpool or dry hopping, Columbus imparts a great dank, old sock aroma that is unique to American hops.

        coumbus hops for a great price

        these hops are a regular ingredient in most of my beers. I use them for bittering and sometimes flavor. it was a no-brainer when I saw them on sale for 10 bucks a pound.

        They're CTZs. If you don't know about them already, you need to explore. Very versatile. I've used them as bittering, flavoring, aroma and dry hops, depending on the recipe.

        Ol' reliable

        Gotta love some CTZ. I enjoy using for both bittering and flavor additions. My results with this hop have been more floral, sticky, almost grassy than fruity, but that's just me. One of my go to hops for clean bittering with a good presence.

        Excellent

        These are some pretty "frisky" hops, but, are very versatile. Can be used as a bittering, flavor, or aroma hop. Be careful if use them as a bittering hop, a little goes a long way. The flavor profile is not as "citrusy" as some of the other high alpha acid varieties, like centennial.

        part of a clone

        I used these hops as a part of a clone for a Samuel Adams Latitude 48 clone. They produced an outstanding aroma and bittering.

        The Juggernaut of IPA hops

        This particular hop variety is absolutely perfect for a single hopped IPA style brew. It's bittering characteristics are second to none, yet it's flavoring and aroma qualities are equally on par. It's slightly oily, which gives it a great mouth feel in higher alcohol content IPA's which can feel a bit dry.It's pure citrusy aroma and taste is perfect if you don't like that slightly earthy taste and aroma some of the C class hops give off. This is my favorite hop for IPA's, and it makes a great bittering hop only for very malt forward brews.

        Great bittering hop

        I used this hop to bitter my version of a West Coast IPA with great results.

        Great for bittering

        I use this hop a lot for bittering my IPA's and Stouts. It's slightly aggressive as a bittering hop. It also is great for aroma with notes of citrus and some pine.

        Hoppitty Hop

        I prefer the packaging that morebeer uses over other suppliers. Never had a quality issue with hops from them.
