The second iteration of our ongoing Hopsplash hop exploration series is featuring Cashmere, a delightfully verdant and versatile hop, which can bring out notes of citrus and tropical fruits, pine and green grassy aromas, peach and melon. This is a hop that plays well with others! Its supporting cast includes Simcoe, Chinook, Mosaic, and Loral.
The result is a punchy, hoppy delight of a Pale Ale, and at 5.2%, one that you can enjoy it all day long.

Had Hopsplash - Cashmere at Community Pie, Chattanooga, on draft into tumbler.
Pours cloudy deep-gold with 1/2-finger near-white head, which quickly dissipates to a persistent partial film, and nevertheless leaves etched Belgian lace scattered down the glass. Aromas of sweet candy and pineapple off pour, then melon and sweet stone fruit, and tart stone fruit and lemon as warms, and growing, and a little mild caramel malt aroma in back. On tasting, begins big melon and mild pine with additional herbal bitterness, all over a full mouthfeel, with little malt presence, leading into a mildly tart, fruity, herbally bitter finish.
Although billed as an APA, this version of Hopsplash is rather West Coast IPA-like, as it is very fruity and also very dry with a piney but mostly neutral, nettlesome bitterness.
