Denali Hops

Has anyone tried Denali Hops yet? Here's the description from Morebeer.

It sounds super interesting. I'd like to know if anyone has had the opportunity to use it in a beer yet. What are the results?

I have not but they sound promising. I would try in a heartbeat.

I bought a pound based on this review but haven't used them yet. Gonna put them in a west coast IPA with some simcoe.

I almost picked up a lb today for tomorrow's brew. LHBS wanted $30 for a lb. Since I grow my own and brew with my own, I haven't bought hops in a while. It seems a little steep. Maybe I'll shop around. YVH website usually has hops cheaper, if I remember.

I read brulosophy review too. That piqued my interest in them too.

That's $1.88 per ounce. Looks pretty average to me. On MoreBeer $30 is their price as well.

I made a Denali SMASH last year that I really liked. 12 lbs. Pale Malt, Mash at 150 degrees for 1 hour then added 1 oz. Denali First Wort Hop, 1 oz. at 10 min., 1 oz. at 5 min., 2 oz. flameout/whirlpool and 3.2 oz. Dry Hop. I used a knottingham (S-04) slurry from a prior batch. Tasted delicious. I have been tempted to buy another 1/2 lb., but am having too much fun experimenting with other hops.

i just used Denali in a brew the other day and the description they give there is accuarte. havent tried the beer yet still fermenting but they do give off a nice aroma during the boil

I recently asked about these hops, too. A local brewery is offering them for their Big Brew Day event. I'm looking forward to trying them out. I think they've been using them for a while.
