Magnum Hops

Magnum Hops is a spicy, citrusy very high alpha bittering hop. Magnum was bred in 1980 at Hüll, the German Hop Research Instititute from the American variety Galena and the German male 75/5/3. This high-alpha hop variety is a very good hop for bittering with acceptable aroma properties and it is commonly used in ale styles like Pale Ale and IPA, or any strong ales.

Magnum Hops are also known as Yakima Magnum.
