Triumph Hops - Adding Orange Flavor To Your Beer

Triumph Hop Profile

Triumph hops are the newest variety to be released by the USDA public hop breeding program. Triumph has been almost two decades in the making, but has been making quite the impact in the brewing community after it was officially released in 2019.

Triumph is more delicate than other fruit forward varieties, but still robust enough to be used in a wide range of styles.
