Belma hops are a recent addition from Puterbaugh Farms in the Yakima Valley. Belma has been tested as a dual-use hop and found to have an ambrosial mix of orange, melon, strawberry and pineapple with a slight hint of grapefruit.
Characterised by its Strawberry flavour and aroma, this has stoked on much experimentation with homebrewers. Used in dry hopping, and with a whirlpool at the end of the boil, many have yeilded grand results from its use.
