Organic First Gold variety is very suitable both as a general kettle hop and also for late and dry hopping in all types of organic beer. Organic First Gold has good aroma and bittering qualities, much of the flavour of WGV seems to have been retained but with an added extra citrus quality; produces a well-balanced bitterness and a fruity, slightly spicy note in organic ales. An orangey quality has been observed in many organic beers brewed using this variety. It has reasonable tolerance to Verticillium Wilt which seems to have been inherited from its WGV parent but it is susceptible to downy mildew. It is also resistant to powdery mildew.
