2A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 2018 New Oregon State hop coming to a pint glass near you Portland alone looking to use the Strata hop and some were planning to pick their order up the day after it was harvested. “Mid-September you will see a lot of fresh hop Strata beers,” he said. “It’s gonna quickly get a whole lot more exposure.” Portland-based Indie Hops began harvest on its first year of commercial-scale production of Strata in late August. Sol- berg said the company expects to harvest about 200,000 pounds of the hops off about 100 acres of farmland near Independence. Although Oregon State famously developed hops like Cascade, Nugget and Wil- High interest in Strata hop By ANTHONY RIMEL Corvallis Gazette-Times If you want to try a beer fea- turing the new Oregon State University-developed Strata hop, your best bet is a can of Worthy Brewing’s Strata India Pale Ale. But in just a couple of weeks? The hop could be everywhere. Jim Solberg, a co-founder of Indie Hops, the company that funds Oregon State’s Aroma Hops Breeding Program, said there are 30 to 40 breweries in lamette, those came from a U.S. Department of Agricul- ture affiliated program at the university. Strata is the first release from Oregon State’s aroma hops program, which was founded in 2010 under Shaun Townsend. “In plant breeding, cer- tainly hop breeding, we plan on at least 10 years of effort before we might have some- thing ready to release as a new cultivar — the process requires significant time to identify the superior plants. Strata, the pro- gram’s first release, is moving into commercial production a bit earlier than normal due to significant demand by brew- ers, and due to this genotype’s strong agronomic performance, Townsend said. Townsend said his pro- gram does the plant breeding and then assesses the plants for things like yield and disease resistance, and Indie Hops then does a sensory assessment on the hops, both evaluating cone aroma and brewing trials. Solberg said the challenge in developing a new hop vari- ety is in finding one with the positive traits like disease resis- tance and productivity that also has a unique aroma. Strata is at an intersection of those traits, he said. Solberg said to this point many beers featuring Strata have been limited run produc- tions, with the exception of Worthy’s Strata IPA. Solberg said Worthy’s owner, Roger Worthington, co-founded Indie Hops with him, so his brewery was the first given the oppor- tunity to produce a year-round beer with Strata. The company began bottling Strata in Sep- tember 2017 and began selling it in cans over the summer. Lydia Jones, with Worthy, said the Strata beer is the com- pany’s best-selling product. She described the hop as having flavors of guava, pas- sionfruit, grapefruit, orange zest, dank earth and lemongrass. The beer also won gold in the Sessionable Hoppy Beers category of the 2017 Oregon Beer Awards. Solberg said Indie Hops has been getting a lot of questions about Strata, especially since Fort George Brewery used it in its summer seasonal 3-Way IPA. Word about Strata has spread very organically, he said. Since the first crops of Strata in 2016 and 2017 were mostly at a trial run scale, Sol- berg said the 2018 harvest will be the first with which the com- pany will able to really launch into the market. “We’re really convinced it’s a hop that has a place. It has a unique and captivating aroma,” he said. Massive boom hopes to corral the Great Pacific Garbage Patch By OLGA R.

The 2,000-foot long floating boom is being towed from San Francisco to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch — an island of trash twice the size of Texas. The system was created by The Ocean Cleanup, an organi- zation founded by Boyan Slat, a 24-year-old innovator from the Netherlands who first became passionate about cleaning the oceans when he went scuba div- ing at age 16 in the Mediterra- nean Sea and saw more plastic bags than fish. “The plastic is really per- sistent and it doesn’t go away by Gerald “Jerry” Petersen was born Oct. 27, les, and married Susan Critton in 1985.
