US Cluster T90 x 5kg

SOMEWHAT STRONG & LARGELY UNDERRATED. HIGH MYRCENE OIL CONTENT

Origin: USA. Cluster is the oldest hop variety grown in the US, and until relatively recently it accounted for the majority of the acreage as well. Though it’s exact history is unknown, the prevailing theory of its origin is pollination of hop varieties cultivated by English and Dutch settlers by indigenous wild hops. With balanced bittering and pungent yet unpleasant aromatics, Cluster adds to the authenticity of historical recipes as well as throwback American lager styles.

CHARACTERISTICS

Somewhat strong and largely underrated. Spicy and floral due to its high myrcene oil content, with an earthy blackcurrant undertone.
