BELMA - The STRAWBERRY Hop? | The Hop Chronicles

- Belma was discovered growing wild in Washington State, and it’s most notable aroma characteristic is strawberry. Yes, strawberry. We're brewing a Pale Ale that uses nothing but a whole bunch of Belma hops and presenting it to tasters who are blind to the variety used, then asking them what characteristics they pick up? We're also quizzing a member of The Brü Club. Is this strawberry thing legit? Let’s find out!

man he was so close with the descriptors picking out the berry compared to most others passing that up. great vid
Love this hop chronicles series! Would be interested to see a cascade, cashmere or galaxy episode!
I've tried using varying levels of Belma in a few different recipes, looking for strawberry. Never had even a hint of strawberry in any of the beers.
Awesome video as usual. Have a couple of questions tho. In the video u said your salt additions were 3g of gypsum and 8g of chloride. Wouldn’t this push the mouthfeel more than the bitterness as u said u were doing with a 3:1 sulphate to chloride ratio? Also when u introduced your sample to Will, you mentioned it was a pale lager recipe. Guess that was just a bit of a slip ya? Cheers! Look forward to your next video, Martin!
I am interested in azacca hops, it would be amazing if you can look into it.
Barnhouse Brewery in Leesburg, VA did an Imperial IPA, The Matriarch, with belma and absolutely got the strawberry note. Thought it was flavored and it turned out to be a SMaSH. Such a unique flavor to pull
Barbe rouge hop is another strawberry hop. I got strong strawberry flavor from it, try this again with it. I'd also do it in a wheat beer instead of a pale.
I've got loads of barbe rouge, did you dry hop or just whirlpool?
@@TheVindalloo Both.
I'm not big on strawberry with beer but interesting video.
I’ve made one great belma beer and then tried again and the hops I got tasted completely different than the first time
Yep… this is the struggle as homebrewers, we have no control over hop quality. The best brewers go pick individual lots!
Strawberry is one of the taste you can olso find in oxidized ipa (more strawberry milkshake kind of taste) do one of you know what kind of strawberry this hops taste to compare ?
You want 3:1 sulphate to chloride so you use 3 grams of CaSO4 and 8 grams of CaCL2? Is that correct?
I wondered about this as well. It seems backwards.
"All I'm gonnta tell you is this is a pale lager recipe." ;)
JK - great video, love to see brulosophy youtube content!
Ive been chasing the Strawberry dragon with Belma for awhile. still cant get any strawberry notes in my beers
Ahh Haaaaa
Only have the thumbs down feature showing
"crest of Belma. house of Belma..."
I got similar results when I made a similar single hop Belma hop beer. I'll echo some of the other comments here: Barbe Rouge is a strawberry bomb.
Interesting! I didn't get much strawberry from the Belma beer I made back in 2014 (part of our Brewer's Thumbprint experiment), but I did perceive the single-hop Barbe Rouge Pale Ale from a couple years ago as having a unique non-descript berries with cream characteristic.
Belma si Welma's sister...
But most importantly .... what did "The Norm" think? He must be on vacation.
