Having performed well in the small plot trials and showing sensory attributes of red fruit in early brewing trials it was fast tracked by the Grower Committee to the NZ Hops trial hop farm in 2017. It exhibited great performance in the field with a vigorous growth pattern, resistance to mite damage, and high yield.
