Sládek was bred with breeding material that had an origin with Northern Brewer and Saaz.
Sládek is an aroma hop that is typically used in only late boil additions, including dry hopping.
Sládek hops have a fruity flavor profile with essences of peach, passion fruit, and grapefruit. Sládek is noted to be a good complement to Saaz in late-hopping applications.
