Beers with Columbus Hops

Hi everyone....

Do you know of commercial beers with Columbus hops? I'd like to try a few and get a feel for those hops as they have me a bit intrigued. Midwest availability a plus.

Thanks,

Justin

columbus hops are the jack of all trade as far as hops go imho. they are good for bittering, aroma and flavor. buy two ounces and make a batch, you'll not be dissapointed.

i can't think of any commercial off hand, but the hop is still stellar.

I thought Pyramid used them in the Thunderhead IPA, but IIRC that myth was recently debunked...lemme see if I can find that thread...

Try to find Anderson Valley's Hop Ottin IPA.

A very tasty all columbus IPA.

BTW,

Does anyone here know what yeast Anderson Valley uses?

Turns out Thunderhead DOES use all Columbus, but in Tomahawk form.

Incidentally, you can get a pound of Columbus pellets from Northern Brewer for only $7. Just bought some for the Resurrection 777 IPA, I'll end up making an all-Columbus pale ale at some point as well.

I recommend Brewpastor's all columbus recipe. That was the best homebrew I've ever had.

Hi, could you link to Brewpastor's recipe?
I can't quite find it.

thanks

Abita Jakamo uses Columbus hops. I love it, but most people I've introduced it to don't like the earthy flavor.

I bought a pound of Columbus this year cuz they were so cheap. I agree with the above make a SMaSH with them. Pretty earthy, dank with some citrus, good stuff

Snakedog IPA is all Columbus.

Deviant Dale's is potently CTZ'd

Oskar blues g'night (gordon)

Hangar 24 Columbus IPA. Good stuff!

Avery Hog Heaven is all Columbus. I plan on doing a pseudo-clone using Bravo, which to my palate is fairly similar to Columbus.
