Product Description

​​​​​​​​​​​Each item is one complete dormant crown, or a field-ready plant, depending on time of year: a plant that is a minimum of 1 growing season old with a well developed root system with multiple breaks taken from healthy vigorous stock.  It is professional quality and since it is a live rooted plant, it offers the best chance of successfully growing and producing your favorite varieties of hops.

A super high alpha American hybrid very similar to Columbus. (like lawsuit similar!) Alpha acids reported as high as 20%. Cones have high lupulin content and makes a “heady” IPA. A high powered hop with good aroma and bittering. Brews similar to Columbus but has larger, looser cone sets.
  • Alpha acids: very high- 13-17%, relatively low beta acids- 4.5-6.5%
  • Aroma: pungent but still pleasant – lots of lupulin
  • Yield: very high – 2400- 3000 lbs/acre
  • Storage: no info
  • Maturity: mid to late season
  • Grower notes: Brewing profile similar to Columbus. Seems to have slightly better plant characteristics, good primary bines on vigorous crowns. Does better in Northern areas than Columbus; possibly because of a later breaking winter dormancy level.  Low resistance to mildews.

Plant Replacement Policy
