Original language description

NESVADBA, Vladimír and Josef PATZAK. New Saaz series of hop cultivars [poster]. Plant and Animal Genome XXX Conference, San Diego, USA, January 13-18, 2023. Since the 21st century, Saaz hops has been used for crossbreeding with an aim to obtain new cultivars with higher resistance to drought and fungal diseases, with higher yield and stability, while maintaining quality parameters of original Saaz hops. There were released new cultivars Saaz Late (2010), Saaz Brilliant, Saaz Comfort and Saaz Shine (2019). The yield of new Saaz hop series is from 1.8 to 2.8 t/ha and the alpha acid content is 2.5-4.0%. Saaz Comfort only has the higher alpha acid content from 4.0 to 7.0%. The Saaz hop series is a typical by the alpha/beta acid ratio from 0.8 to 1.2, cohumulone content from 18 to 28% in alpha acids and mainly the higher portion of farnesene from 12 to 27% in essential oils. The aroma of hop cones is herbal, with predominant fine hop aroma, with soft tones of spice, fruit and citrus. Saaz Comfort and Saaz Shine cultivars show good resistance to drought. Currently, brewing tests are carried out in large breweries as well as craft breweries for lager style beer with soft bitterness and noble hoppy aroma. Saaz Late is still grown on 32 ha.
