Hop Fuggle (UK) in Pellets T90 in 5 kg bag - A hop long associated with typical English Ale brewing. Fuggle has typical English flavour,
frequently blended with Goldings to improve "drinkability" of the beer, and adding roundness
and fullness to the palate. This robust hop contributes all the essential characteristics of
flavour, aroma and balanced bitterness to ales, particularly as its relatively low alpha acid
content requires a high hopping rate to achieve desired bitterness levels. Sometimes used as a
distinctive dry hop. Typical usage: All English style Ales, ESB, Bitter, Lager, and
Lambic.
