Breeding / Development
Added to the BSG Hop Solutions portfolio in 2020, HS-Sitiva™ was developed through multiple rounds of brewing trials at the Rahr Technical Center pilot brewery. It is a blend formulated specifically for use in hazy IPA and other hopforward beers as an alternative to New World hop varieties.

Sensory
Beers brewed with HS-Sitiva™ had a strong expression of stone fruit, floral, and resinous/pine flavors and aroma, as well as some tropical fruit character.

Brewing Application
HS-Sitiva™ is ideal for aroma, whirlpool, and dry hop additions to Hazy and Juicy IPAs, or for any other hoppy styles where a combination of citrus, tropical fruit, and pine aromatics are desired.
