WHAT IS MYRCENE?
Myrcene is an essential oil found in numerous plants and fruits.
One of those plants is hops and, in beer, myrcene is responsible for the peppery, spicy, balsam fragrance.
Myrcene may be recognizable
for its earthy scent & flavor profile.
Some perceive a balsam fragrance, while others describe it as smelling of clove or musk.
We picked Myrcene for our name because we care about what's in our beer -- even at the chemistry level.
Good Ingredients make Good Beer!
