US Idaho Gem CY24 brings a distinctive Idaho-discovered aroma hop to brewers who want candy-like fruit outside the usual Yakima names. It is a strong fit for hazy IPA, pale ale, and fruited specialty beers, and any recipe where sweet cherry-candy character should lead the beer.

Expect fruit candy, cherry, and light spice with a soft bitterness profile. Idaho Gem delivers best in whirlpool and dry-hop roles, 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.
