Dolcita (HBC 1019) is a brand-new hop from Yakima, first crossed in 2016 and released in 2025. Bursting with flavours of peach rings, ripe melon, and tropical fruit with a touch of citrus, it delivers a juicy sweetness balanced by a clean, modern bitterness. With its vibrant character and fresh history, Dolcita is already making its mark as an exciting new hop for contemporary IPAs and pale ales.

Pours a hazy light orange with soft, soapy head.
Smell is juicy and a bit sweet with notes of peach candy, peach syrup, melon, tangerine and pineapple with some peppery hints.
Taste is juicy, hoppy and intense, but still bright and drinkable. Notes of peach candy, melon, peach syrup, pineapple, lemongrass, tangerine and grapes. Soft but distinct bitterness and perfect balance.
Mouthfeel is medium, creamy, soft and pillowy with good carbonation.
Overall, an utterly fantastic IPA, showcasing how good Cloudwater are at combining intense hoppiness with superb moreishness. A masterclass.
