In this extended video tip Chris Tropeano of Resident Culture Brewing goes deep on single hopped beers.
It's the truest way to see the expression of a certain hop and what it brings to a beer, he says, and by learning the nuances, strengths, and weakensses of one hop variety it can help you bring thoughtful combinations to your next beer.
Tropeano walks us through a multitude of hops, what he's found they bring to a beer and how Resident Culture works to combine them to bring full flavored and interesting IPAs to the glass.
