Flavor & Aroma Profile

HBC 472 is an aroma hop that is typically used in only late boil additions, including dry hopping.

The aroma of the HBC472 hop cones consists of floral, woody, earthy, and coconut. In beer, this hop delivers a surprising fruity note along with its distinctive coconut-woody character. When hopped aggressively in IPA style beers, citrus and grapefruit aromas rule, but a fascinating whiskey/bourbon and coconut character breaks into the background.
