Bullion (T90 Pellet) is one of the earliest high-alpha hops in the world, raised in England in 1919 from a wild Manitoban female crossed with an English hop. It delivers a bold, rich bittering character with distinctive blackcurrant and dark fruit notes that make it especially well-suited to stouts, porters, brown ales, and dark milds.
Alpha Acids: 6–9% | Beta Acids: 3–5%
Use as a 60-minute bittering addition. Pairs naturally with Dark Crystal Malt to amplify dark fruit character. Add Target hops if extra bitterness is needed, or a small amount of Willamette at flameout for an earthy aroma note.
Ferment with Gervin GV12 Ale Yeast. For stouts, consider adding Lactose for a creamy milk stout finish. Use Beer Finings and Carbonation Drops at bottling.
