Vic Secret™ Australian Hop Cultivar Number: 00-207-013 is an irresistibly aromatic hop that imparts clean pineapple, pine and herb flavours. Her full potential is realised through late addition where the impact of her high levels of alpha acid are balanced and the aromatic oil profile can be captured.
