Description

Whitbread Golding Variety (WGV) is a dual-purpose hop that can be used in all hop additions throughout the brewing process. Whitbread Golding hops have fragrantly woodsy with overtones of fresh garden herbs and green fruit, thanks to good proportions of humulene and farnesene. It displays many similar characteristics but has more robust and slightly sweet, hoppy flavor.
