I bought some South African hops from my Cape Town trip. My buddy Steve requested to name one of the beer Soul Pig, in honor of his beloved partner, kAte. Out of the six hops I bought, the only hop name that doesn’t start with “Southern” is the African Queen hop. Hence I named this Soul Pig’s African Queen! I love this faux SMaSH beer (used Bravo for bittering as I have limited African Queen supplies). 5 gals, 100% Rahr 2-row, 11 Brix OG, 35 IBU, flame out and dry hopped with 0.9oz of African Queen each. Tasting/Aroma notes include melon (awesome!), tropical fruit, and citrus. Southern Hemisphere hops don’t disappoint. Cheers to Muller and Beukman for being such great hosts to us during our visit. Please come visit us so we can return the favor.
