Ahh, that's right! Was a familiar bunch but just couldn't remember the exact ones! B)

Well as an ardent fan of Fuggle,and Willamette, I can't believE it took me so long to get around to trialing this hop.
Made an IPA with 100% Styrians and found it to be a little soft in the bittering stakes(40IBU) and to subtle in the flava up against the Chewy malt base.Couldn't see what all the hype was about.

Then I made a bitter with 90% GP,5%Maize,5%Crystal.Willamette for bittering and flava and a big belt of Styrians for flava/aroma.1968 yeast.36 IBU
WOW! what a spicy nose and finish.the usual subtle orangey marmalade undertones, but with a pungent spiciness that has faint hint of gingeriness(in a subtle ginger ale type way,not overt like ginger beer).
What a top hop!

I love Styrians in combination with EKG for Bitters and ESBs. I have normally used it as a bittering or up to 15m before flameout hop, with EKG for dryhopping. I like it too in a 1:3 ratio with EKG for dryhopping English Ales. I prefer it to fuggle as I can get it fresh (off the kiln), because it's grown here in Tassie. Fuggle are imported, and the flavour has been for me more variable.

Reading this has got me halfway convinced to trying NZ styrians for a brew.

Anyone care to compare em to the real thing?

 

[Hargie]

.....Styrians seem to add a subtle 'juicyness' i just can't put my finger on....would love a kilo or two in the freezer....

I'm hearin ya.......I loved the real thing! Just curious as to how the NZ ones stack up alongside.

 

[drsmurto]

I use the Styrians as a flameout addition for my landlord clone. At 1.5g/L its as subtle as a brick to the head, far too hoppy for a TTL but sooooooo nice nonetheless.

Have some plugs in the freezer to compare them to the pellets. Also have a Deuchars IPA pencilled in which uses Styrian for both flavour and aroma. Cant wait!

I have used some of the NZ Styrian Flowers in a strongish porter/brown but it is still conditioning.
I added the NZ SG at 20 and 5 minutes from flameout. Yet to try the beer but will report
back.

[Lecterfan]

Styrians in a sweet stout. Anyone tried it? Results?

 

[Bribie G]

Should go nicely in a sweet stout or a Northern Brown etc.

Hey what's happened to TDA - missing in action since November, hope the guy is ok and still drinking.

 

[Lecterfan]

Cheers BribieG...

 

[Bribie G]

Hey I see TDA is online at the moment. Didn't get hijacked back to the Yemen or whatever.

 

[jurule]

I just brewed a Honey Citrus Ale using lemon and orange zest and orange blossom honey. Hoping will compliment the 50g of Styrian Goldings in there nicely. Can't wait...

Hey all,

Have just dry hopped a keg of TTLL with 20g of Styrian (thought that was a safe amount to put in the keg...). It's turned it in to a resinous hop bomb! The aroma almost reminds me of something like simcoe or chinook in it's spicyness, but perhaps only because the types of beers ive smelled which have been this fresh in their hop character have been american.

Anyone else dry hopped with Styrian Goldings and found it to be an absolute beast in the aroma (and even flavour!) that it gives off?

My beer needs to be good to go by Sunday, and at the moment is significantly hoppier than I think a Best Bitter should be..... By contrast, my APA dry hopped with 25g Cascade if very meagre in aroma when held side by side...

What sort of amounts do you guys normally dry hop english style beers with in the cask/keg? Coming from brewing primarily American styles, I thought 20g would be somewhat subtle...

 

[manticle]

I've dry hopped with styrians a few times, mainly in a big Belgian beer I make but also in an IPA. I love them anywhere in a beer - early, late and dry.

My dry hopping rate is always 1g/L
