Brewer's Gold (US)

Bred at Wye College in 1919, Brewer’s Gold is an ancestor to many major high alpha hops including Sterling, Galena, Horizon, Centennial and Nugget.

Brewer's Gold (US) is a bittering hop that is commonly used only to bitter the beer during brewing, and not for too much flavor and aromas.

It is an English variety, however American-grown Brewer’s Gold contains higher levels of alpha acids than its English counterpart. This hop has hints of black currant and spicy aromas.
