About
Sister to Bullion, US-grown Brewer's Gold is a cultivar of the original English variety, Brewer's Gold. Despite having been developed in England, its origin is undoubtedly North American having been initially derived from a wild hop sourced from Canada's Pembina Valley in Manitoba. The American version is naturally similar to the original but contains higher alpha acids on average.
