Description

Vic Secret Hops Profile: Pineapple – Pine – Herbs

Vic Secret™ is fairly new to the game, only being introduced in 2013. She hails from the same Australian and U.K. roots of her sister Topaz™. Anticipate flavors and aromatics of clean pineapple and passionfruit, with a slight, resinous whiff lingering in the background. Vic Secret’s approachability and high alpha acid content make her a nice addition to any hop-forward beer style. Her characteristics are best highlighted in whirlpool or dry-hop additions. Vic Secret™ possesses similar yet lighter characteristics than her peer Galaxy™, but she’s no less of a breakout star in her own right.

Vic Secret Description from the Grower

“Big pineapple and refreshing pine flavours best accessed by late addition in the whirlpool and dry hopping. Alternatively, kettle addition imparts dank and herbal flavour with some fruit.”
