Yakima Chief Hops

HyperBoost™ has been unleashed across the realms! 🔮✨🌠This new magical elixir flows from the power of the great hop mage. To celebrate, we partnered with brewers from around the world for a global collaboration. From the Pacific Rim to the French Riviera, from the American Southwest to the Southern Hemisphere...HyperBoost™ is weaving its magic. ✨ Hyperboost™, formerly YCH 701, is a high-oil extract that delivers variety-specific hop characteristics, amplifying the flavors and aromas of finished beers. Each brewery in the collab is using the same recipe, with their own unique craftmanship and cauldrons (*read: equipment).

Behold! A new hero has joined the magical hop universe! Introducing HYPERBOOST™ ✨🔮🌠 Formerly known as YCH 701 Trial, HyperBoost™ is a concentrated hop oil designed for use on the cold side. The mage of brewing was summoned into this realm using supercritical CO2 extraction and an innovative process, to gift our world with enhanced beer aroma and the freedom to use the elixir anywhere in the process pellets would be used. A clever potion indeed! And a force to be reckoned with. Boasting a concentration of 40-70% total oil (depending on variety), HyperBoost excels in cold-side applications. Available in Citra®, Simcoe®, Mosaic®, and more, it is a beer alchemist's dream. Drink from the chalice and revel in the power gifted by the supernatural hop powers that be! HyperBoost is a spellcaster here to grant us with explosive aromatics and hyper flowability. 🌠

There is no denying that the hop growing community has experienced ups and downs between beer booms and global regressions. However, one of the ways that we remain sustainable and balanced is through strong Return-to-Grower percentages. Return-to-Grower (RTG) is the dollar amount given back to the farms for the sale of their hops. We have established the RTG program with 75% of our income being given back to our family farms regardless of the state of the market. A high-end RTG enables the multi-generational family farms that grow YCH hops to reinvest in infrastructure, equipment, and people which is critical to seeing the farms continue for future generations. Double 'R' Hop Ranches, Inc. shares how Yakima Chief Hops' Return-To-Grower program has added value by being able to improve facilities related to quality of product, food safety, worker welfare, and sustainability.

At Yakima Chief Hops, we are committed to leading proactive land stewardship through storytelling, education, and advocacy. Our dedication to regenerative agriculture is reflected in our Green Chief® Program, which promotes sustainable practices that benefit our growers and the environment. There has long been a misconception that agriculture negatively impacts the environment and that crops only take from the land. But what if we told you there's an approach to farming that contributes to the land while still allowing farmers to reap a bountiful harvest? It's called regenerative agriculture. Read our recent blog "The Role of Regenerative Agriculture in Sustainable Hop Production" to learn the importance of regenerative agriculture in the beer industry and its potential to mitigate the effects of climate change associated with traditional farming practices.
