The name tells you most of what you need to know: it gives a clear lemon character that reads fresh rather than sharp, with a little mint and green tea behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur lot measures 5.0% alpha acid, which keeps it gentle enough to use generously late in the boil without piling on bitterness. That makes it a good fit for lighter beers where you want citrus aroma but not a hop-bomb.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFlavor \u0026amp; Aroma Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLemon and lemon candy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight mint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreen tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFaint melon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft Cascade-style citrus underneath\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt lower rates it gives a clean lemon note that sits nicely over a pale malt bill.
