Description

Magnum, in its primary role, delivers a masterclass in clean, short-lived bitterness – a cornerstone in brewing. However, its late-harvested counterpart introduces an additional layer of complexity. The fresh, piney-like aroma becomes a defining feature, creating a sensory experience that transcends the expectations of a traditional bittering hop.

Explore the late-harvested Magnum’s aromatic allure, where the essence of fresh pine takes center stage. This unexpected twist, combined with Magnum’s inherent clean bitterness, adds a delightful freshness to the aroma. The hop oil contents, peaking at 2.9 ml / 100 g, contribute to a nuanced and invigorating olfactory journey.

Magnum’s dual nature makes it an ideal choice for brewers seeking both reliable bitterness and an aromatic kick. From classic beer styles demanding a clean bittering agent to innovative brews where aroma plays a pivotal role, Magnum proves its versatility as a go-to hop.

Magnum stands tall as a versatile brewing companion, offering clean bitterness as its primary virtue. However, its late-harvested iteration elevates it to new heights, showcasing a delightful interplay of freshness and aroma. A testament to the transformative power of harvest timing, Magnum is a must-have for brewers navigating the diverse landscape of hop utilization.
