YCH Hops

Yakima Chief Hops (YCH) is a 100% grower-owned global hop supplier headquartered in the Yakima Valley, the heart of American hop production. The company operates as a cooperative-style organization that directly connects commercial brewers and homebrewers with family-owned hop farms, ensuring full traceability from farm to brewery. YCH sources and supplies a comprehensive portfolio of hop products, including whole leaf hops, hop pellets, fresh hops, aged hops, Cryo Hops, Cryo Fresh, CO2 hop extract, organic hops, and American Noble Hops — serving both large-scale commercial brewing operations and the homebrewing market. The company's proprietary Cryo Hops technology involves cryogenically separating lupulin from raw hop cones to create a highly concentrated hop product delivering intense aroma and flavor with reduced biomass, a product line that has become widely adopted across the craft brewing industry. In addition to standard T-90 pellets and whole leaf products, YCH offers innovative formats such as HyperBoost and DynaBoost, as well as a line of curated hop blends including the well-known Falconer's Flight, Zythos, Cryo Pop Original, Pink Boots, Veterans, Pacific Crest, and Ales for ALS blends — many of which support charitable causes within the brewing community. The company provides a robust spot market platform for commercial buyers alongside a contract purchasing program that gives brewers access to secured volumes, pricing transparency, and early visibility into new products and upcoming crop years. YCH's Lot Analysis Lookup tool enables brewers to access detailed brewing specifications, alpha and beta acid content, oil composition, crop year data, and farm-of-origin information for every lot purchased, reinforcing the company's commitment to quality assurance and supply chain transparency. The company maintains organic-certified hop offerings within its commercial product catalog, catering to craft brewers seeking certified organic ingredients. With a broad variety catalog spanning bittering, aroma, and dual-purpose hop varieties with detailed alpha, beta, cohumulone, and oil content specifications, YCH serves as a comprehensive hop ingredient partner for breweries of all sizes globally.
