Mandarina Bavaria is a German aroma hop bred at the Hop Research Institute in Hüll and released in 2012, prized for a clean tangerine and orange character. This 200g pack of T90 pellets suits brewers who use it regularly in fruity pale ales and wheat beers.
Hop profile
- Origin: Germany, Hüll breeding programme; a daughter of Cascade
- Alpha acid: typically 7-10% (BarthHaas has recorded crops up to about 12%)
- Aroma: tangerine and orange, with hints of blackcurrant, gooseberry and rosemary

How to use it
Use it late in the boil, in the whirlpool or as a dry hop to keep the citrus character. Alpha acid changes from crop to crop, so check the figure on your pack and scale your recipe with our Hops Alpha Adjustment calculator.
Who it's for
Brewers making pale ales, fruity IPAs, saisons, wheat beers and even pilsners who want a bright citrus lift without heavy pine. T90 pellets are the standard form for home brewing - consistent, easy to weigh and easy to store. Keep the opened pack sealed and cold; our hop storage guide explains how.
