If your goal is to brew expressive, fruit driven beers while championing British agriculture, Harlequin® Hops are a natural fit.

With medium alpha acid levels and high oil content, Harlequin Hops offer both powerful aroma and balanced bitterness — perfect for late additions and dry hopping.

Juicy pale ales
Hazy IPAs
Session strength beers
Modern lagers seeking a fruity lift
It also blends beautifully with other British or international varieties to create complex, multi-dimensional hop profiles.
