Released by the USDA public breeding program and a 2019 Hopsource alum, Vista emerged from the Elite Line thanks to brewer feedback highlighting its melon, tangerine, tropical, and green tea character in blind sensory tests. Vista's dual purpose character (11-12%) brings versatility to light, crushable styles like lagers and pilsners while also contributing vibrant flavor to pale ales and IPAs. Known for large cones and excellent agronomics, Vera is a modern American variety signaling the bright future of public hops.

Hopsource is a public hop sensory assessment event hosted by the Brewers Association at Yakima Valley Hops during the harvest season. Learn more about our yearly Hopsource event here.
