International Bitterness Unit

IBU is the bitterness of beer. Dutch pilsner is approximately 15-20 IBU, while a West Coast IPA can quickly reach 60 IBU. IBU is always in proportion to the alcohol percentage of the beer, so a heavy beer with high IBU can still taste sweet because the maltiness overpowers the bitterness.

The story

HBC Bingo

Every now and then we brew beers with hop varieties from the experimental program of the Hop Breeding Company (HBC). These are brand new hops of which the flavors they bring to the beers are still being tested. These experimental hops initially only carry a number. When enough people are finally enthusiastic about a hop variety, the hop gets a real name and is sold commercially. Some well-known examples of previously successful hops are the Citra, Mosaic and Sabro hops - which you can also discover in our other beers!

Just like you, we are also very curious about the flavors of these hops in the HBC Bingo, so let us taste and let us know what you think on Untappd!
