CHALLENGER pellet hop

This woody hop variety was cultivated by Wye College in 1972 with derivation from the Northern Brewer and Northdown for an English flavor. Challenger provides a mix of both aromatic and bittering characteristics and is used especially in European beers. This hop has a rich aroma of cedar, green tea, spices and a pinch of fresh flowers. With an alpha acid content of 6.5% to 8.5%, it has a moderate bitter quality with strong flavors. Challenger is widely used in beers like Pale Ales, Belgian Ales and English Ale. Possible additions or replacements of Challenger hops include Northern Brewer and Perle.
