A Japanese high alpha aroma variety released in 1984. A hop cross of Brewers Gold X Saazer X Japanese male. It is considered an all-purpose hop that is used where a strong bright lemony character is desired. 12-36”sidearms with some resistance to disease and pests. Typical 36 inch in-row spacing.
  • Alpha acids: 10.7-14%, betas ??, cohumulone 23%, total oils 2-2.8ml/100g
  • Aroma: bold lemony with slight oak & dill tones
  • Yield: 1200-1600 lbs/acre reported
  • Maturity: mid-season
  • Storage stability: fair- should be refrigerated
  • Beer styles: Farmhouse Ales , Saisons, IPAs, Tripels, Witbiers. A good single hop brew type.
  • Grower notes: Has to be oasted and stored carefully or off-buttery flavors can develop.  Smaller plant with finer growth and habit – grows more like Saazer than Brewers Gold.  Our first impression is that it is a fair to moderate producer that appears to have some resistance to mildews.  Brewers inquire frequently about this Japanese hop variety.
  • Trellis type: 12 X 42; 36-40” in-row spacing
