It stands out for its unique combination of heavy dank and resinous character alongside bright tropical fruit, especially mango and citrus. While it shares some DNA with older “C-hops,” it brings a more modern, pungent, and fruit-forward twist. Many brewers describe it as having a slight cannabis-like aroma layered with tropical notes, which makes it popular in hazy and West Coast IPAs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"auto\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlpha Acids:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11 – 14%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTotal Oil:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5 – 3.5 mL\/100g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e United States\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pellet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Substitutions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Simcoe or Mosaic (in some recipes)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/yakimavalleyhops.com\/products\/strata-hop-pellets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eMore tech specs here\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePractical Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eStrata is mainly used for aroma and flavor. It performs well in late boil, whirlpool, and dry hopping, where it delivers strong dank, resinous, and tropical character. Because it’s quite pungent, it can easily dominate a beer if used too heavily. Most people find 2–4 oz total in 5 gallons works well for solid impact. Going heavier can make the dank and resinous notes feel overwhelming or harsh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eBrew day tip: It pairs especially well with Citra, Mosaic, or Simcoe when you want to push big dank and tropical character. It can also work on its own in bolder IPAs if you’re looking for something with more edge than pure fruit-forward hops.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Double Dank Brewing Supply","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42580925579349,"sku":null,"price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/0089\/1733\/files\/strata-hops-reggae-beach-bar.jpg?v=1781013358","url":"https:\/\/doubledank.beer\/products\/strata-hops","provider":"Double Dank Brewing Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
