HyperBoost Your Beer with Cinderlands

Sponsored by Yakima Chief Hops, this video course is free to brewers everywhere.

Pittsburgh’s Cinderlands Beer is a local brewery at the cutting edge, with cofounder and head brewer Paul Schneider leading a program focused on flavor science and R&D, analyzing and iterating for beers and other beverages that meet consumer demand as well their own exacting standards. When it comes to IPAs and other hop-forward beers, that program includes the use of advanced hop products to effectively and efficiently pack in more aroma and flavor.

In this video course, Schneider lays out their methodical approach to using those hop products, including Yakima Chief’s new HyperBoost. Along the way, he covers:

• how and why Cinderlands pursues greater hop saturation and efficiency
• dialing in usage rates and layering with other hop products
• what the team learned from experimenting with HyperBoost
• the value of bench testing and careful carbonation to optimize and preserve hop aroma
• specific examples of developing an imperial hazy IPA and a hop water that both include HyperBoost in the mix
