From One Trick Pony to Cryo Fresh: Epic’s Next Hop Experiment

For more than 20 years, Epic has had a fairly uncomplicated obsession: hops.

Not hops as decoration. Not hops because IPA happens to be fashionable. Hops as an ingredient worth pulling apart, comparing, experimenting with and occasionally pushing far beyond what seemed sensible at the time.

That philosophy has led us through new hop varieties, new ways of using them and, over the years, some genuinely new hop technology.

Now it has led us to Cryo Fresh.

With Electric Pony IPA, we are using Yakima Chief Hops’ new Cryo Fresh Mosaic for the first time. This is also the first commercial b**r brewed with Cryo Fresh in New Zealand.

But Electric Pony didn’t appear out of nowhere. It sits at the end of a pretty long trail of hop experiments.

Epic B**r introduces Electric Pony, New Zealand’s first Cryo Fresh IPA. Discover how Yakima Chief freezes fresh hops, how Cryo Fresh differs from Cryo Hops, and the history of Epic’s One Trick Pony hop experiments.
