Equinox Hops

I have specifically stayed away from them for this reason. If it's not common, I may have to give them a try.

 

I found this write-up about Equinox hops on the Northern Brewer website:

“At first, Equinox is familiar—in a pleasant, desirable way. Tropical fruit, papaya and mango notes reminiscent of Mosaic and Citra offer versatility across fresh-flavored styles. Then, things get weird.

In the midst of the bright citrus and melon there is a ribbon of green pepper. Or something like green pepper. It’s not green pepper in the eat-it-with-hummus-use-it-on-a-fajita sense of green pepper. It’s sweet and fruity but seemingly not fruit.

The interpretations of Equinox have been so wildly different yet similarly perplexed that we’ve decided it’s just one of those hops you’ll have to experience for yourself.”

Cheers!

 

Oskar Blues does a Dale's Pale Ale dry hopped with equinox but i've only seen it on draft.
