“The reduced vegetative matter of LUPOMAX® pellets gives me a clean hop flavour and really saves on beer loss, too. It can be used at any stage in the brewing process, but it really shines where flavour intensity and reducing beer loss matter most, like dry hopping.” –Virgil McDonald, Head Brewmaster, John I.
