IRVINE, September 24, 2024 - Abstrax Hops is thrilled to announce the expansion of its revolutionary terpene-powered, TTB approved, Skyfarm Series fruit flavoring line, doubling the portfolio with six new vibrant and refreshing flavors: Clementine, Grapefruit, Honeydew, Kiwi, Passionfruit, and Raspberry. These new flavors are poised to become the hottest beer and beverage trends for summer 2025 and are available now for brewers and all beverage manufacturers to craft innovative and mouth-watering recipes.

With the introduction of these six flavors, Skyfarm now boasts a dynamic collection of 12 bold, fruit-forward options, expanding on the previous lineup that featured Guava, Mango, Peach, Pineapple, Strawberry, and Watermelon. The expanded Skyfarm Series opens endless possibilities for brewers and all beverage manufacturers looking to infuse their creations with the bright, juicy flavors that define summertime refreshment. Whether you're crafting hazy IPAs, seltzers, sours, or creative non-alcoholic and functional beverages, these new flavors promise to deliver an elevated sensory experience.

“We’ve seen an incredible response from brewers and functional beverage manufacturers utilizing the Skyfarm Series to push the boundaries of their beer and beyond beer beverage recipes,” said Jim Ringo, VP of Sales and Marketing at Abstrax Hops. “With the addition of these new flavors, we’re giving our customers even more tools to create the next wave of summer favorites. These fruit flavors are on-trend with consumers, versatile in recipes, work well together as blends, and will undoubtedly be in high demand for Summer 2025.”

The Skyfarm Series was developed using Abstrax’s cutting-edge botanical analysis and extraction technologies, ensuring that each profile delivers the most aromatic fruit flavor top notes. The process captures the essence of real fruits and botanicals in a way that’s both sustainable and scalable, making these profiles not only delicious but also reliable for consistent brewing, batch after batch - and they come without the headaches or challenges of working with fruit purees, fruit extracts, or syrups. There’s no added sugar and are perfect for low-caloric beverage applications.
