Description

This hop was discontinued, and it is not available for purchase.

Omega was developed at Wye College with Challenger female and an unknown English variety as parents. It has disappointing farm yields, thus it is not grown much anymore.

Omega is an aroma hop that is typically used in only late boil additions, including dry hopping.

The Omega hop has been described as “pleasantly European in style”.
