Description
Fuggle T90 Hop Pellets are a traditional hop known for their earthy, woody and herbal character, complemented by gentle grassy, mint and floral notes.
Fuggle has a long association with traditional English brewing. Its restrained aroma works particularly well in malt-focused beers, where the hop character can add depth and complexity without overpowering the malt profile.
Aroma & Flavour
Fuggle can contribute:
- Earthy
- Woody
- Herbal
- Grassy
- Mint
- Light floral notes
Its soft and traditional character makes Fuggle particularly useful when you want a balanced hop profile rather than intense citrus or tropical fruit aromas.
Brewing with Fuggle Hops
Fuggle works primarily as an aroma hop. Late-boil additions can add its characteristic earthy, woody and herbal flavour, while later additions can bring more of its delicate aroma into the finished beer.
It also works particularly well alongside other traditional hop varieties when building classic English-style beer profiles.
Suitable Beer Styles
Fuggle is well suited to:
- English Bitter
- English Pale Ale
- Mild Ale
- Brown Ale
- Porter
- Stout
- English IPA
- Traditional English ales
