Description

Zula has a pedigree of Lubelski, a Savinski Golding hybrid and a Yugoslavian male. It is a twin sister of Lunga and was released to the public in 2004.

Zula is a dual-purpose hop that can be used in all hop additions throughout the brewing process.

Zula was designed as high-alpha variety, but due to “additional aroma compounds” it was sentenced to death by larger breweries. Years later it turned out that those strange aromas are tropical and citrus fruits. This hop is accompanied by short, clean bitterness when used in the early boil.
