We have a newly branded hop to be on the lookout for. Talus. Sounds like sport utility vehicle but is a new hop that is a cross between Sabro® brand and neomexicanus. It was bred by Michael Ferguson of John I. Haas and Jason Perrault of Yakima Chief Ranches.
What does Talus bring? According to the press release, “big aromas of pink grapefruit, citrus rinds, dried roses, pine resin, tropical fruits and sage.” To me, the descriptors that leap out are the roses and sage which sounds intriguing.
