Target was released by Wye College in 1992. It is a cousin of Challenger and descendant of Northern Brewer and Eastwell Goldings.
Target is a bittering hop that is commonly used only to bitter the beer during brewing, and not for too much flavor and aromas.
Specific aroma descriptors of the Target hop include fresh green sage, spicy and peppery, and hints of citrus marmalade. Whirlpool or dry hop additions play up the spice character. Target offers crisp bittering and moderate alpha acids.
