Sterling

Sterling's pedigree includes Saaz, Cascade, Brewers Gold, Early Green, and other European varieties. It was bred in 1990 and released in 1998 by the USDA.

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

Sterling hops have aroma descriptors that include noble and spicy.

Some hops just taste better together. We recently analyzed [ 1 ] hundreds of the most popular beers to find which hops are commonly paired together. We found that Chinook , Cascade & Centennial hops are commonly used alongside the Sterling hop. This is not a complete list, but should give you a good idea of what hops are commonly used together.
