Endeavour hops are a modern British variety bred for rich aroma and brewing flexibility. Developed by Wye College, Endeavour is a seedling of Cascade, bringing together classic and contemporary hop traits. It was released in 2002 and has since gained recognition for its bold yet refined profile.
The Endeavour hop offers vibrant notes of dark berries, citrus, and spice. Hints of blackcurrant, lemon, and spice are common. These aromatic qualities give it a unique character among British-grown hops. With alpha acids between 5% and 9%, Endeavour hops work well for both bittering and aroma purposes.
Brewers often use Endeavour hops in late boil additions or dry hopping to highlight their strong aroma. Although assertive, the hop maintains a balanced presence in the final beer. This makes it suitable for both traditional ales and modern craft styles.
Several UK breweries have showcased Endeavour hops in limited releases and core ranges. Beers such as English-style pale ales, bitters, and even porters benefit from the hop’s rich aroma. St. Austell Brewery and Thornbridge have used it to create bold yet smooth hop-forward beers.
Endeavour hops also perform well when paired with other varieties. Blending them with Jester® or Olicana® enhances tropical and citrus characteristics. These combinations work especially well in juicy pale ales and low-ABV session beers.
Endeavour hops offer an excellent balance of tradition and innovation. They bring a bold, fruit-driven character while maintaining the smoothness typical of British hops. Moreover, their versatility allows brewers to explore both classic and contemporary beer styles with confidence. For those seeking complexity and consistency, the Endeavour hop is a reliable and rewarding choice.
