German Amarillo ® 11 lb

Origin: 
Washington, USA. Found growing wild in 1998 by Virgil Gamache Farms of Toppenish, WA. Grown and processed in Germany from the same cultivar as the Amarillo® found in US fields.

Brewing Application: 
With respectable alpha acid content, Amarillo® can be a dual-purpose hop and contribute to bittering additions, but with its unique, highly sought-after aromas and flavors combined with high demand, it’s most often seen in late-kettle or whirlpool additions and as a dry hop. A fixture in American pale ale, IPA, and Imperial IPA formulations.

Sensory: 
Diverse aromas depending on picking time. Early harvest brings aromas of lemon and candy. Mid-harvest brings aromas of grapefruit, floral, and tropical. Late harvest brings aromas of onion/garlic and dank.
