Due to its considerable amounts of alpha acid, it is most suitable as bittering hop. As main hop addition, it ensures a fresh, full-bodied rounded bitterness, and is a good base for a later hop addition. As late hop addition, it will add a pleasant fruity bitterness to the beer.
- For maximum freshness and optimum shelf life, all our hops are packed in special vacuum packages and kept in a cold-storage chamber at 5°C.
