Variety Details

Its profile brings citrus and sweet fruit—often grapefruit, passionfruit and blackcurrant—together with herbs, spice and resin. Its relatively high alpha range makes it a true dual-purpose hop for efficient bittering and expressive late additions. It fits pilsner and other lagers as well as pale ale, IPA and Belgian-style beer.

Beers and Pellets were evaluated using our Sensory Plus™ Trained Panel. Beers were dry hopped in a standard 2-Row Pale Ale at 2lb/barrel for 72 hours.
