Description
Welcome to Silver Springs European Saaz hops.
Small to medium 6 inch rhizomes.
Saaz has a very distinctive flavour. Used in beer as a finishing hops, the resultant aroma is very mild, earthy, herbal and spicy. Despite its popularity and noble pedigree, Saaz generally has a very low Alpha Acid level and is not very effective as a bittering hop. This hop is generally used for pilsners and is used in some newer styles of IPAs and ales as a finishing hop.
These are only second year plants here. So I have struggled a little to find really nice fat juicy rhizomes. They are a little on the small side for our usual quality so please keep that in mind. Still all minimum 6 inches and 3 node sets.
Very viable rhizomes. We unfortunately have not been able to have these tested yet, so we will have to run on the wikipedia numbers for now.
Not many this year. I doubt there will be more than the 20.
Alpha Acids 2.5 – 4%
Beta Acids 4.6 – 6%
Cohumulone 23-26%
