Loading... Please wait...Usage: Bittering
Description: New (2006) Super High Alpha. Became quite popular during the Great Hop Shortage and was
a staple in some West Coast IPA's (Russian River even brewed a Bravo IPA). The higher Co-Ho
levels mean a not completely smooth bittering, but not as harsh as Chinook. (it's bittering properties are similar to Simcoe).
Flavor and aroma are described as an earthy spice and herb, fruity and floral, so, I guess that is is different things to different
people. It's a decendant of Zeus and Nugget.
Typical Beer Styles: American IPA, American Pale Ale, American Stout
Possible Substitutions: Columbus, Tomahawk, Zeus
Typical Alpha Acid: 14 - 17%
Origin: US
