With four hops from America’s heartland of hop-growing, the Yakima Valley of Washington State, Yakima Twilight serves as a celebration of American hops. We thought of hop farmers as we formulated this beer. We wanted to create a malty platform to showcase the intense flavors and aromas that these dedicated hop-farmers have developed in their wonderful hops.
Dark malts are also featured in Yakima Twilight making for a challenging beer to brew as achieving balance between the strong flavors of fresh, whole flower hops and deeply roasted malts is no easy feat.
