Profile
The SAB Blend is a unique hop blend originating from South Africa, designed specifically for dual-purpose use in brewing. This blend is a combination of three distinct hops: Southern Promise at 20%, Southern Star making up the majority at 70%, and Southern Dawn at 10%. While specific flavor profiles for the SAB Blend as a whole are not widely documented, each of its constituent hops brings its own characteristics to the table. Southern Promise is known for its mild and clean bitterness, while Southern Star offers a balanced profile with some berry and pine notes. Southern Dawn, although present in a smaller percentage, can impart a subtle earthiness to the brew..
