British Hops

British hops are experiencing a renaissance, with varieties such as Harlequin, Olicana, Jester, Mystic, and Godiva leading the charge. In recent years, a resurgence in British hop growing has sparked a quiet but significant movement across the countryside. Kent, Herefordshire, and Worcestershire, once the heartlands of hop cultivation, are witnessing a revival driven by craft brewing and sustainability. Modern varieties developed by Charles Farams Hop Development program such as Harlequin, Olicana, Jester, Mystic, and Godiva are leading the charge, offering brewers unique flavors and aromas. The revival of British hop cultivation is not just a return to tradition, it’s a renaissance of innovation. Small-scale growers, inspired by a passion for quality and sustainability, are experimenting with diverse cultivation techniques and unique hop varieties. This commitment to excellence is reshaping the landscape of British hops, offering brewers an array of options to craft distinctive and memorable beers. As this movement continues to gain momentum, we’re proud to support local growers and showcase the rich flavors of British hops, celebrating both tradition and innovation in every sip.
