Meridian Hop Pellets (2022)

Current AA: 6.3%

Meridian delivers a mix of tropical, berry, and citrus fruitiness with a hint of spearmint. A “top note” hop, nice in a saison, wit, or farmhouse, it can also be combined with more aggressive hops in IPAs to brighten the overall impression of the beer.

One brewer has used it in a single hop lager beer, which he described as "clean and crisp with a refreshing sweet lemon character". Meridian has also raised eyebrows in a wide range of ales, from pales to dark roasted malt "winter seasonal.  It's reported to play well with Belgian yeast and has a way of amplifying the zesty zing of weissbiers.

Use in: Ales, Pale Ales, IPA's, Belgian ale, Weiss, Black IPA.
