Description
After years of availability only in the Outback, it will be released to the rest of the world from 2021. HPA-016 was created by the HPA breeding program in 2004 and commercialized in 2020. Its ancestry is a cross pollination of high alpha Australian and North American hops.
HPA-016 is an aroma hop that is typically used in only late boil additions, including dry hopping.
HPA's newest proprietary flavor hop - tentatively called HPA-016 - is a big-hitting, fruit-forward flavor hop bursting with sweet mandarin, citrus peel and fresh pine needles.
