Description

Agnus hops were bred from a number of varieties including Bor, Fuggles, Northern Brewer, Saaz and Sladek. Released in 2001 from the Czech Republic.

Agnus is a bittering hop that is commonly used only to bitter the beer during brewing, and not for too much flavor and aromas.

Agnus hops have key flavors that include lavender, leather and tobacco.
