AMARILLO® VGXP01 c.v. Hop Profile

A legendary variety introduced by Virgil Gamache Farms, AMARILLO® VGXP01 c.v. is one of the top 10 most widely used hops. With mid-to-high alpha (8-11%) and the highest myrcene oil content (68-70%) of any hop, Amarillo® packs rich, citrus flavor and aroma that's reminiscent of tangerine, orange and lemon, backed by light stonefruit and wildflowers. Amarillo brings versatility and depth to many beer styles and makes a flavorful team player with other U.S. favorites like Cascade, Citra® and Simcoe®. Amarillo: the all-American, citrus classic that brewers return to again and again. 

Aroma: Strong orange, tangerine, lemon, apricot, melon and wildflowers
