Single Hop Series: Magnum | Hermitage Brewing

ABV: 7.0%
IBU: 70
Style: IPA - American
Out of Production
Description: German Magnum hops are a high alpha acid hop believed to have low flavor and aromatic qualities. Because of this, Magnum hops are prized for the “clean” bitterness they impart to beers and are typically used just for bittering. Here at HBC, we wanted to challenge this preconception and see what qualities Magnum imparts when used in late hop additions and in dry hopping. Lead Brewer Greg Filippi had this to say: Our Magnum IPA showcases the trademark bitterness of the variety at about 70 IBUs, but doesn’t stop there. Our hearty dry hopping lends a beautifully sweet, fruity aroma almost like juicy fruit gum, with evergreen notes reminiscent of pine or maybe fir trees.
