From Hazy IPA

• First dry hop is more sacrificial since yeast pulls out a lot of flavor.
• Good to use Nectaron in the first dry hop.

From Hop combos

• likes nectaron a lot and says it rips in a west coast IPA
• Hoppy Lager - R: We’ve done the same base hoppy lager a few times and switched up the hop combos. Favorite so far was Mandarina/Nelson/Nectaron. All 3 in the dry hop. Nelson/Necataron at a 170 degree whirlpool.
• Nectaron hops - R -

From Podcasts: Oregon

• Simcoe:
  • Works especially well when it’s not the dominant hop
  • Example: Blends nicely with Nectaron in NZ IPAs
• Krush:
  • Pairs well with Simcoe, Mosaic, and other classics
  • Adds a red berry flavor
• 1019 (Dolcita):
  • Effective at around 25% of the hop bill
• Simcoe and Krush as base
  • Krush: works best at 20% or less, adds some woody notes
  • Can be overdone—best used in a mix
• Nectaron and Nelson as top notes
• A little Mosaic to tie it together
• NZ hops (Nectaron, Nelson): cool-pooled and dry-hopped
• Mosaic and Simcoe help prevent vegetal character
• Uses regular Nelson, no special lots
