Jester® UK Hops has an intense, punchy aroma of new world proportions with flavour notes of grapefruit and tropical fruits.
Developed by Charles Faram & Co Ltd in the UK, Jester® is a proprietary hop which brings with it distinct flavors and aroma qualities quite different to that of tradition English hop varieties. These unique characteristics of Jester® include forward and robust notes of tropical fruits, grapefruit and blackcurrant and even hints of Lychee.
Jester® is considered most useful as a mid to late addition but is also fantastic to dry hop with. Though not considered a particularly useful bittering hop, when used in this regard it imparts a mild, herbal resonance.
