Description
Newport is the offspring of Magnum and a USDA male variety. It was released in 1992 and bred by Oregon State University.
Newport is a bittering hop that is commonly used only to bitter the beer during brewing, and not for too much flavor and aromas.
Newport hops have aroma descriptors that include earth, citrus, wine and balsamic. It contains high alpha acid, co-humulone and myrcene content, offering more distinct aroma characteristics than its parents.
