Wheat Styles

Hops that pair well with wheat beers such as hefeweizen, wit, American wheat, and similar styles, where you often want light bitterness and bright, approachable aroma that does not fight clove, banana, or citrus from yeast and spice.

Noble and soft aroma hops like Saaz, Hallertau, Hersbrucker, Tettnang, and Mt. Hood fit classic wheat profiles; Cascade, Amarillo, Citra, Mosaic, Motueka, Lemondrop, and Mandarina Bavaria suit fruitier American wheat and hybrid recipes.
