Chinook was developed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) breeding program in Washington State and released in 1985. Originally released as a high alpha variety, Chinook has gained favor in craft brewing with its distinctive aroma. This cultivar takes its name from a Native American tribe indigenous to the region around Washington State. The female parent is one of the English Goldings.
