Medusa Hops
Medusa Hop Profile
Medusa Hops are no longer being grown by the farmer.
If you are looking for a suitable substitute, Zappa is another neomexicanus variety from the same farm. Talus, Dolcita, and Comet can also offer up some of the same characteristics.
Medusa™ is unlike anything you’ve encountered before. Native to Colorado and New Mexico, humulus lupulus neomexicanus is an entirely different species from its European cousin, humuls lupulus lupulus. Grown exclusively by CLS Farms — where additional neomexicanus varieties are being developed — Medusa delivers intense aromas and flavors of guava, melon, apricot, and citrus. With naturally low alpha acids, it excels as an aroma hop in IPAs, pale ales, and any style seeking bold aromatics. Its striking multi-headed cone adds to the allure, making Medusa a truly unique hop poised to turn heads across the industry.
