Barbe Rouge Hops - French-Grown T-90 Pellets

Barbe Rouge Hops for Strawberry, Raspberry, and Currant

Barbe Rouge hops are French-grown T-90 pellets with a red-fruit profile built around strawberry, raspberry, currant, black currant, citrus, bubblegum, orange, lime, and herbal notes. They are a good fit when you want softer berry character without moving into heavy resin or dank hop intensity.

Use Barbe Rouge in late-boil, whirlpool, or dry-hop additions for fruitier expression, or earlier in the boil when you want bitterness with a little more character than a neutral bittering addition. The variety fits pale ale, IPA, saison, wheat beer, blonde ale, and fruit-accented beer.
