A dwarf hop bred from W.G.V. First Gold has an attractive aroma similar to Challenger's but with a higher alpha content than most aroma hops. The variety is suitable for all hopping procedures. The flavor is similar to W.G.V. boasting a well-balanced bitterness with fruity and spicy tones. It is slightly spicy with a spicy orange marmalade aroma, a little like Golding. Typical brewing style: ale and esb.
