Hop Saaz (100 gr)

Hop Saaz (100 gr)

Saaz hops, available in a 100 gr package, are one of the most popular ingredients for beer, a type known and used to brew lager and pilsner beverages, typical of Central Europe and Germany. Originating in the Czech Republic from the town of Zatec, from which it takes its name, Saaz is an extremely popular beer hop in the Bohemian region. Because of its high content of antioxidant polyphenols and low alpha acid content (between 2.5 and 4.5%), it is recommended for use in the final stages of boiling, as a flavouring agent, in combination with a different type of bittering agent. Substitutes are Spalt Spalter and Tettnanger. Saaz beer hops are sold in 100 gram pellets.
