Southern Passion is a South African bred aroma daylight neutral hop whose pedigree is a diploid seedling originating from Saaz and Hallertauer crossing.  The aroma profile includes passion fruit (granadilla), guava, red berries, melon, calendula, and grapefruit – very unique.  Total oil content is about 1 percent, alpha acids range from 8 to 12 percent, and cohumulone is very low from 16 to 20 percent.  Noble hop pedigree represented in alpha and beta acids being about equal.  Works well with a variety of beer styles including lightly hopped session beers, and all hop-forward beers of American and Belgian origins such as pale ales, IPAs and Saisons.  Possible similar hops: none.
