Even though it has a low alpha-acid content you will find many traditional recipes using this hop for both bittering and for flavor/aroma additions.

        Nice Hops and Packaging

        I like the hops carried by MoreBeer. They make great beer. I like the heavier resealable hop packages better than some other suppliers use.

        GREAT HOP!

        Used these hops in a saison and could not have been happier. Great aromatic addition without being overpowering which I feel enhanced the experience. Czech Saaz are now a favorite.

        Default Noble Hops

        I use Saaz in many European style beers from German Lagers to Belgian Blondes and Triples, Cost point is great for 1lbs and the packaging is excellent with a zipper to keep freshness for leftovers between batches.

        Great for Kolsch recipes!

        I made a Kolsch with these Saaz hops, and it turned out great. They added just the right amount of bitterness while allowing the flavor of the malt to come through.

        Classic Pilsner Hop

        If you want to emulate the original pilsner you just have to use Czech Saaz hops! I use them for all additions and I do a double decoction!

        My go-to noble hop

        I always keep a few ounces on hand because they turn up in all kinds of classic/continental recipes. They make it into all my Belgians. A really flavorful, refined hop.

        I love this hop!

        Saaz hops are essential for Czech Pilsners and Saisons. I love the unmistakeable spicy flowery nose that Saaz bring to my beers. A true Noble classic hop that everyone should brew with.
