Country of Origin: Czech Republic
Usage: Dual
Alpha Acid %: 2.5-4.5
Flavor and Aroma Notes: Indispensable for authentic Bohemian-style Pilsner, Saaz possesses a mild but distinctively spicy, pungent quality that is equally at home in other pale lager styles as well as Belgian and farmhouse ales. Soft, pleasantly spicy and herbal with vivid woodsy, earthy, and dark floral character. Distinctively “hoppy” in pale worts.
Styles: Belgian Ales, Czech Pilsners, Lagers, Farmhouse Ales
