Abstract

In the 90th, a methodology of hop breeding was innovated in the Czech Republic. Registration of a new variety Agnus in 2001 represents the result of the innovation mentioned above. Agnus variety is the first high-alpha hop in the assortment of Czech hop varieties. It contents 11-15% w/w of a-bitter acids and 5-7.5% w/w of b-bitter acids. The yield usually exceeds 2 t/ha. Cultivation of Agnus is tested in various localities within hop growing areas. Simultaneously brewing tests in pilot and full scale are performed in five Czech breweries.
