Herkules Hops – High Alpha Variety for Powerful and Clean Bittering
Herkules hops are a modern German high-alpha variety originating from the Hallertau region. As one of the most efficient bittering hops worldwide, Herkules is known for its very high alpha acid content and exceptionally clean bitterness. It is the ideal choice for brewers seeking efficiency, stability, and precise bittering performance.
Aroma Profile of Herkules Hops
Herkules delivers a clean and neutral bitter profile:
- Strong, clear bitterness
- Very low grassy off-notes
- Light spicy and subtle citrus nuances

Thanks to its high alpha acid content, Herkules is ideal as a bittering hop for first wort hopping or early boil additions. It provides a stable, long-lasting bitterness without overpowering the beer’s aroma profile.
