Mt Hood is another descendant of the Hallertau family of Hops. Mt. Hood Hops was released in 1989 and has similar qualities to German Hallertau and Hersbrucker varieties. It has a low alpha acid rating of 4.0%-8.0% and is used primarily as an aroma variety. Mount Hood is a mainstay of brewing, especially in American Craft Beers.

No other vine is faster growing or more effective as an ornamental screen. Plants can grow up to 20 feet in one year when grown in a sunny location and are easily trained on a fence of trellis. Each year they die back to the crown in winter. In late summer the vines bear cone-like flowers that have a fresh, pine-like fragrance. The flowers are used in beer-making. Dark green, deeply lobed foliage is very attractive.
