Profile
Adeena hops, emerging from the ADHA breeding program, have quickly become a notable name in the brewing community. Previously known under its experimental name ADHA-1940, Adeena is the result of a cross between the Summit hop and an English male, showcasing a blend of both American and English hop characteristics. It is celebrated for its exceptional vigor, yield, disease resistance, and its striking similarity to the Willamette hop variety.
The flavor profile of Adeena is distinct, characterized by its herbal and slightly spicy notes. These are beautifully complemented by a unique floral aroma with undertones of lemon and citrus. This combination offers depth and versatility to the brew, making it especially suited for lagers and pilsners. Beers brewed with Adeena present a low, smooth bitterness, culminating in a clean finish. This balance makes Adeena an excellent choice for a range of beers, including lagers, pilsners, kölsch, and ales.
