Like most brewers, Rose used multiple hops in all their beers. At least two types and often as many as four. The majority were English, backed up with some German and American types.

Those English hops mostly came from either Worcester or Kent. Not much of a surprise there, as they were the two largest hop growing regions in the UK. Sussex, on the other hand, was a minor hop region. It’s interesting that hops from there show up so often in Rose’s beers.

The foreign hops came from two countries: the USA and Germany. Along with the UK, they were the largest producers of hops in the world. But UK brewers’ opinions of them were very different. German hops, along with those from Bohemia, were the only foreign hops considered to have as good a flavour as the best English examples.

In contrast, American hops were liked because of their high alpha acid content and low price. Their flavour, however, wasn’t liked. Hence their use mostly at the start of the boil.
