Description
Sterling hops, released in 1998, are a hybrid variety that combine the best traits of Saaz and Cascade hops. Brewers often choose Sterling hops for their ability to add a clean bitterness and subtle, yet enticing aroma to a wide range of beer styles, from lagers to pale ales.
Flavour: These hops deliver a balanced bitterness with spicy, grassy, and herbal notes, accompanied by hints of citrus and pine. The fresh hop version enhances these characteristics, providing a fresher, more dynamic taste.
Aroma: The aroma is bold and multifaceted, featuring a blend of spicy, grassy, herbal, and citrus notes with a touch of earthiness.
