Hi guys and gals, not much time on this forum for me as yet. I did a search but couldn't find anything on victoria hops. You see, a friend has given me rhizomes of a few types of hops to grow and now that I have a farm I have all the room I need. The cascade and Hallertau Hershbrucker are growing nicely so far, there is even a dead roo buried under the cascade plant so it should grow nicely in coming years.
Anyways, I have a variety labeled victoria and don't know anything about it. What sort of bitterness levels would I expect and any ideas on the flavour profile? Does anyone out there grow or brew with this type of hop? What other types might it be similar to?
One more thing, do you think having a dead roo rotting under my plant will make the cascade more hoppy than usual? Just kidding, thanks all,
Shane
