This session is focused on educating brewers on what we know and don’t know about hop creep, defining specifically what it is and what exacerbates it, and offering approaches to managing it or its effects in the brewery.
Learning Objectives:
- Articulate how and why hop creep occurs as a result of dry-hopping
- Implement brewing practices to accentuate or minimize the effects of hop creep before beer leaves the brewery
- Identify hop-relevant factors that impact hop creep potential
