Styrian Golding as it is commonly known, goes by a multitude of sometimes confusing aliases, and is the result of the clonal selection of Fuggle exhibiting many Fuggle-like characteristics. From a brewer’s perspective, Styrian Golding is a lovely aroma hop and exhibits resinous, earthy flavors that are perhaps considered slightly more refined than Fuggle. It has also been described as imparting subtle aromas of white pepper to a brew.
Pleasant, earthy, and spicy. It has, in comparison to its Slovenian cousins, more citrus-y aromas particularly grapefruit.
