Admiral Hops

Derived from Challenger and Northdown, Admiral is a mid-season hop developed at England’s Wye College in 1984 by Dr. Peter Darby. Released in 1996, it serves as a potential high-alpha replacement or complement to Target hops.

Dual purpose. For aroma and bittering.

Very good high alpha hop that will be mainly used as a replacement for Target in extracts and pellets where bitterness value is the main consideration. Not as harsh as Target in terms of quality of bitterness and has a very pleasant hoppy character.
