About
Bred at Wye College, released in 1976, and the most widely grown British hop. Very high bitter value, very good stability average aroma. A flexible hop that may be used to effectively bitter a wide variety of both Ales and Lagers. Unusually effective for dry hop aroma in IPAs, and potentially Pilsners too. Would also lend itself well to Saison.
