8 Mr. C. Gibson Tosswill has detected in it a difference from the usual American aroma, and has characterized it on several occasions as a distinctive Manitoba aroma, also commenting on a pungent Manitoba flavor. J.S. Ford of the Wm. Younger & Co. s Brewery in Edinburgh, Scotland : -Physical examination pronounced, unpleasant nose. -In the dry hop tests at 4 ounces per barrel, too bitter, rank and slightly unpleasant. It (the American hop) is rather a stronger bitter than the European hop, and with a stronger scented flavor in many cases.

11 In 2000, German researchers analyzed 90 hop cultivars and breeding lines based on Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphisms. Group A represents mainly hops with European origin and includes the subgroup of fine/noble aroma cultivars. Group B contains cultivars and breeding lines with higher alpha acid contents. Their ancestors are mixture of European cultivated hops and North American wild hops. In group C are hops derived from crosses in which hops of European and North American origin were brought together. Often in these crosses the objective was to combine the high alpha acid contents of North American hops with aroma notes similar to the European aroma hops

15 The birth of a new variety German Hop Research Center Hüll Year 1: 75 to 100 crosses. Year 2: 100,000 plants are grown from seedlings in a greenhouse, and assessed for their resistance to powdery mildew and downy mildew. Most will fail. Years 3-5: 4,000 female and 400 male plants assessed in the breeding yard. Assessed again for resistance, and also for wilt, stature, cone quality, yield and aroma quality.

16 Years 6-9: 20 to 30 advanced lines remain. Ongoing assessment of all traits, plus storage stability. Years 10-12: Highly advanced selections, field trials at different locations, and brewing trials. Years 13-14: Apply for plant variety rights
