Formerly Citiva, HS-Sitiva™ has ripe stone fruit, sweet floral, and soft peach flavors and aromas, as well as tropical fruit and lime character. Added to the BSG Hop Solutions portfolio in 2020, HS-Sitiva™ was developed through multiple rounds of brewing trials at the Rahr Technical Center pilot brewery. It is a blend formulated specifically for use in hazy IPA and other hop-forward beers.
Beers brewed with HS-Sitiva™ had a strong expression of ripe stone fruit, sweet floral, and soft peach flavors and aroma, as well as tropical fruit and lime character.
HS-Sitiva™ is ideal for aroma, whirlpool, and dry hop additions to Hazy and Juicy IPAs, or for any other hoppy styles where a combination of tropical fruit, stone fruit, and citrus-lime aromatics are desired.
