Breeding/Development:
From the HVG Hop Breeding Program, Amira boasts genetics from wild and domestic hops from Germany, Russia, the UK, and the US, including Brewers Gold. In the field it is heat- and drought-stable with vigorous growth and high yields.
Sensory:
Classic hoppy, slightly herbal aroma with hints of citrus (lemon). Spicy and sweet fruit undertones. Early sensory feedback compared Amira to Perle and Hallertau Tradition.
Brewing Application:
Aroma and finishing additions. Amira works well as a solo hop or part of a blend in traditional German beer styles as well as craft lagers: use it for Pilsner, Vienna, Kolsch, Altbier, Bock, and more.
