HopXL captures 98% of hop compounds using patented hydrocarbon extraction — delivering the full spectrum of the cone in a form that dissolves instantly in any liquid. Zero beer loss. Perfect consistency. Every batch.
Every batch, breweries lose beer, time, and money to a process that captures a fraction of what the hop cone contains.
Hop pellets absorb approximately 15% of liquid volume during dry hopping. On a 10-barrel batch with 30 lbs of hops, that's a full barrel of finished beer — gone.
$3,000+ per batchTraditional dry hopping ties up fermentation tanks for 4-7 days. That's capacity your brewery is paying for but not using — limiting batch cycles and revenue.
4-7 days per batchKilning destroys up to 50% of volatile aromatics. Pelletization degrades more. By the time T90 pellets reach your brewery, you're working with 15-20% of the original cone.
80% lost in processingUnlike CO2 methods that produce oil-based concentrates requiring post-processing to disperse, HopXL's patented hydrocarbon extraction captures hop compounds in a natively water-soluble form.
Dissolves instantly in any liquid — beer, water, NA beverages, functional drinks. No warming. No pre-dispersion. No pellet supplement.
Alpha acids, beta acids, essential oils, 200+ terpenes, polyphenols, xanthohumol — every compound the fresh green cone contains.
Build a custom hop profile from individual compound data that belongs to your brewery alone. No licensed variety. Your flavor, owned by you.
A single liter of HopXL delivers the equivalent compound profile of 44 lbs of T90 pellets. Less shipping, storage, and waste.
Every major hop extract on the market uses CO2 extraction, which produces oil. Oil doesn't dissolve in water — it suspends. HopXL's hydrocarbon extraction creates compounds that dissolve on contact.
Drop your extract into a glass of water. Does it dissolve instantly and completely — or does it float, separate, and cling to the glass? That test tells you more than any spec sheet.

*SPECTRUM is marketed as "dispersible" but requires warming, pre-dispersion in 5-10x liquid, and vigorous stirring per BarthHaas technical data sheet.
A craft brewer used HopXL to create a hop water — no pellets, no oil-based extracts. The product entered a blind taste test against Lagunitas Hoppy Refresher, backed by Heineken's distribution and marketing budget.
The HopXL-based product won. Then it sold out completely.
Made entirely with water-soluble liquid hop extract. Not a single pellet.
Water-soluble hop extract doesn't just improve beer. It unlocks every growing beverage category — on equipment you already own.
The fastest-growing segment in adult beverages. HopXL dissolves instantly in water — no separation, no oil residue. True hop flavor without alcohol.
Non-alcoholic beer sales jumped 111% since 2021. Add hop character post-dealcoholization without the problems of dry hopping a finished NA product.
Hops contain compounds with documented health-promoting properties. Water-soluble extract enables hop-infused functional beverages on your existing lines.

We ship your variety-specific water-soluble concentrate with complete dosing guidelines. Shelf-stable for 2+ years.
Test HopXL against your current process on a small batch. Same recipe, same conditions. Let the beer speak.
Integrate across your production. Same quality, every batch, every time. No variability. No loss.
"HopXL is an amazing additive in lieu of dry hopping. I finally have my own formula and taste profile that my customers love because of the consistency. They know it remains exactly the same — every time."
"I don't have to remind people how daunting it can be out there for breweries. HopXL pretty much saved us by providing a better product and saving us thousands of dollars."
"HopXL has been a game changer for my brew business. There's no other way to say it."
"I didn't believe that I could get the consistency I wanted with literally zero effort compared to the meticulous effort I had to make previously. Also no loss of yield in the barrel is pretty cool too."
