Should You Brew With Contessa Hops? - SMaSH Beer Experiment

What do Contessa hops really taste like? In this Brew Dudes SMaSH experiment, John and Mike brew a 1-gallon single-malt, single-hop beer to uncover the true aroma, flavor, and bitterness profile of this newer US-grown “noble-style” hop variety. Contessa brings a mix of herbal green-tea notes, soft floral character, gentle bitterness, and a hint of underripe pear — but is it actually any good in a beer? We break it all down, sip after sip. We also share the exact hop schedule and malts used in our SMaSH experiment so you can brew your own batch at home. Chapters 0:00 – Intro: Another SMaSH Hop Test 0:20 – What Is Contessa?
