Hop: Keyworth's Midseason
Description
Keyworth's Midseason is an old English aroma hop that had all but disappeared but had high acreage early on due to Verticillium wilt resistance.
The hop was released in 1949 from East Mailing Research Station in Kent, Keyworth along with Keyworth's Early but has a much higher yield.
After almost disappearing, it has seen a revival with Charles Faram's with descriptors of citrus and blackcurrant aroma.
