HBC 586

HBC 586 is an experimental hop variety from the Hop Breeding Company, which is a joint venture between John I. Haas and Yakima Chief Ranches. HBC 586 is the result of a hybrid pollination of the mother YCR 21 and male #01239-2.

HBC 586 is a dual-purpose hop that can be used in all hop additions throughout the brewing process.

When used as a whirlpool or dry hop addition, HBC 586 brings a complex medley of tropical fruit flavors. The aroma of HBC 586 has been described as "a large medley of fruit flavors... Mango, guava, lychee, citrus, with slight sulfur and herbal notes."
