Description
Summit is a bittering hop that is commonly used only to bitter the beer during brewing, and not for too much flavor and aromas. Summit hops' aroma descriptors include pepper, incense, anise, orange, pink grapefruit and tangerine. Summit is mainly used as a bittering hop, but does have earthy aromatic characteristics and subtle hints of citrus. Summit hops at times picks up notes of sulfur (like garlic/onion), so be careful when using this hop.
