subzero hop kief

SubZero Hop Kief, supplied to us by Freestyle Hops, is a cryogenic liquid dry hop that offers a more complex profile in the finished product, and helps achieve a different flavor and aroma that would not be possible with the use of regular hop pellets.

The best part about the SubZero Hop Kief is that it is extracted using a solventless method. This means no Co2, no emulsifiers, and no “incidental additives” that are in typical hop extraction methods. We want the cleanest ingredients possible for our products.

Freestyle hops

Freestyle Hops provides us with high-quality SubZero Hop Kief which is grown and processed in the high country of New Zealand. They supply us with some of the most flavorful, unique and intensely aromatic hops in the world.

This is what makes our beer the best that it can possibly be, we strongly believe that sourcing matters. Quality brewing entails intentional curation from seed to can, Freestyle Hops helps us make that happen as a proud partner of Parallel Brewing.

  • The hops are extracted using a small volume of USP food-grade ethanol added (~33% EtOH by weight) for food safety and ease of use.

    “Most other products that claim to be solventless actually use CO2 as the solvent, meaning that compounds that aren’t soluble in CO2 don’t end up in your beer. For example, free thiols are not typically solubilized in CO2.”

  • The “Hop Kief” hops are in liquid form as opposed to regular hop pellets, giving the finished product a refined and somewhat creamier taste.

  • Parallel Brewing is a proud partner of Freestyle Hops because of their commitment to quality products and ethical manufacturing. We believe in the excellence of the New Zelands varietals that are provided by Freestyle Hops, and their pioneering of botanical blends that are widely loved.
