TOP
Australia
This Aussie flavor hop bred by HPA was originally selected as an alpha hop for the production of alpha extract, but brewers have since found that late additions of Topaz™ in large doses leads to exotic lychee and tropical fruit flavors that really shine in session beer styles.

*Alpha acids are determined by conductometric titration (EBC 7.4) in Europe, by spectrophotometry (ASBC Hops-6) in the USA. Oil composition is determined by gas chromatography (ASBC Hops-17, EBC 7.12).
All values represent the medium range of the last 4 years. Be aware that specifically the alpha and oil values can vary in a broad range depending on the relevant crop year.
