Profile

Falconer's Flight 7 C's is a distinct and versatile hop blend, skillfully crafted to showcase the best characteristics of the seven "C" hops: Cascade, Centennial, Chinook, Citra, Cluster, Columbus, and Crystal. Developed by Hopunion LLC, a leading hop supplier in the United States, this blend was created in honor of the renowned American brewmaster, Glen Hay Falconer, who passed away in 2002. Falconer's Flight 7 C's hops were introduced in 2010, and they have since gained popularity among both professional and homebrewers for their unique flavor and aroma contributions.

The Falconer's Flight 7 C's hops boast a complex flavor profile that includes citrus, floral, and spicy notes, accompanied by a touch of earthiness. The blend provides a high alpha acid content, typically ranging from 9% to 12%, which makes it an excellent choice for bittering, as well as late additions and dry hopping to achieve a balanced and aromatic brew. Falconer's Flight 7 C's hops are well-suited for a variety of beer styles, including IPAs, Pale Ales, and American Amber Ales, where they impart their signature characteristics and enhance the overall beer experience. As a homebrewer, experimenting with this exceptional hop blend will not only broaden your brewing horizons but also help you create beers with rich, multi-dimensional flavors that stand out from the crowd.
