It’s our annual green hop release with the Harewood Food & Drink Project!
Due to the nature of Harewood’s hop garden, it’s hard to figure out exactly what hops are going in the beer. Starting with a mix of classic British hops, often Fuggles and Challenger, a season of cross-pollination becomes hard to keep track of. But there’s no denying the freshness these hops bring. A bright fruity flavour and grassy aroma that hard to replicate with conventional hops.
Green hop beers are a special seasonal treat made using hops that are taken straight from the bine and put into the boil as quickly as possible. A true icon of the British beer calendar and one we look forward to every year.
