US Comet CY24 brings a revived American classic to brewers chasing assertive citrus character. It is a strong fit for IPA, pale ale, and West Coast styles, and any recipe where wild grapefruit character should lead the beer.

Expect punchy grapefruit and wild-American zest with usable bittering strength. Comet works from kettle through dry hop, with results that track closely to the lot analysis on the COA.

This hop is available in professional brewing formats, including 11 lb foils and 44 lb boxes. Choose the 11 lb nitrogen-flushed foil for maximum freshness on aroma-critical additions, or the 44 lb box when this hop anchors a recurring program and purchasing efficiency matters.

Hop analysis values vary by crop year and lot. For exact alpha acid, beta acid, total oil, and lot number, confirm the active lot through the COA or product documents before final recipe calculations. Store cold and sealed until use.

Brewer Notes

US Comet Hops — Wild American Grapefruit

Comet is a revived American classic — assertive wild-grapefruit citrus from a variety that predates the craft boom and came back for it.
Best Brewing Fit
IPA, pale ale, and West Coast styles. Genuine dual-purpose from kettle through dry hop.
Brewing Guidance
Vintage-lot value with a story: an heirloom American hop that delivers loud citrus at a workhorse price. Note the high cohumulone — bitterness reads punchy, which suits its styles.
Pro Brew Advantage
In stock in Fort Worth with same-day shipping on orders placed by 3 PM CT, or noon when it rides a pallet (2 PM Fridays). Rides the malt pallet under the flat-rate freight program, so hops ship for pennies when they join a pallet order.

Best Beer Styles
IPA; Pale Ale; West Coast IPA
