Description

Apollo is a cross between Zeus and a male with (98001 x USDA 19058m) lineage. It was released in 2006.

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

Apollo is a super high-alpha variety with a low cohumulone level that makes it an excellent bittering hop. When Apollo is used toward the end of the boil it can contribute flavors and aromas of citrus (lime), grapefruit, orange, pine, resin, and cannabis.
