Huell Melon is a German hop with a very distinctive aromatic profile, known for its fruity expression and especially recognizable melon notes. Developed in Hüll and released in 2012, it appears as a modern variety designed to bring distinctive and differential nuances to aromatic-profile beers.
In brewing it stands out for its reminders of honeydew melon and strawberry, with a clean, fresh and very attractive character for recipes where an elegant and unusual fruity side is desired. Its relationship with Cascade helps explain part of its profile, although here it appears taken towards a softer, rounder and more singular register.
