Classic British Hop with Floral and Earthy Notes
Whitbread Golding (also known as WGV), is a traditional British hop variety that brings a delicate balance of earthy, fruity, and floral flavors to your brew. First selected in 1911, this hop has stood the test of time, offering a classic profile ideal for brewing authentic English ales, Bitters, Pale Ales, and ESBs. With its robust aroma and smooth bitterness, Whitbread Golding is a versatile hop for aroma and bittering additions.
Expect hints of woodsy herbs, sweet fruits, and fresh garden floral overtones, which make it perfect for adding complexity to malt-forward beers while keeping a balanced finish.
