Episode 114 – Experimental Hop Testing with Charles Faram
In this data-packed episode of The Hop Addition Podcast, we explore the exciting world of experimental hops, testing four new UK-developed varieties: CF310, CF321, CF373, and CF383. Each hop is trialled in two beer styles — a clean lager and a juicy hazy pale ale — to assess how they perform across different brewing environments.
We’re joined by special guests Will Rogers and Jon Stringer from Charles Faram, the team behind the hop development program, and Martin Rake from The Malt Miller.
Expect an in-depth discussion covering:
🔬 Hop aroma and flavour profiles in contrasting beer styles
📊 Analysis of tasting results with data-driven graphs representing key characteristics
🌱 The breeding goals behind these new hop varieties and how they compare to established names
If you’re into hop science, experimental brewing, or just love staying ahead of the curve in the world of craft beer, this is an episode you won’t want to miss! 🎙🌿🍺
