Description

Green Bullet is a dual-purpose hop that can be used in all hop additions throughout the brewing process. Specific aroma descriptors of the Green Bullet hop includes black pepper, pine, plum and dried fruit characters; high levels of floral oil that complements and balances the piney resinous hop character. It has a resinous character reminiscent of Styrian Goldings, but layered with hints of musky Southern Hemisphere fruit. It is traditionally considered a bittering variety for lagers, but also carries spicy characteristics typical of other Slovenian hop varieties. This hop is regarded as a “workhorse” in its native New Zealand and is widely used there.
