Columbus Hops are a powerhouse American hop prized by home brewers for their intense bitterness, pungent aroma, and dank citrus character. Originally bred in the 1980s, Columbus, often grouped with Tomahawk and Zeus (CTZ), has become iconic in hop-forward beer styles, especially for bittering and late additions.
Columbus delivers sharp grapefruit zest, dank herbal spice, and deep resinous notes. It’s perfect for bold styles like IPAs, Barleywines, and Imperial Stouts, and it’s a favorite in dry hop additions for home brewers who want that signature West Coast punch.
If you want aggressive bitterness and layered hop character in your homebrew, Columbus is a go-to variety.
