Cryo Cascade pellet hops offer a more intense and efficient version of the beloved Cascade hop profile, making them a popular choice for brewers looking to amplify citrus and grapefruit flavors in their beers. They are particularly suitable for styles that embrace a strong hop presence.  Prominent flavors include bright grapefruit and citrus notes, followed by hints of floral and pine elements. The grapefruit characteristic is especially pronounced, offering a zestier and more vivid citrus quality than the standard Cascade.  

Cryo Cascade hops generally have a higher alpha acid content compared to the regular Cascade variety. The typical range is about 18% to 20% alpha acids, which is significantly higher than the non-cryo version.
