Aramis is a new (2011) French hop variety from the Alsace. It is suitable for both bittering and aroma uses, although it’s fairly light aroma makes it more suited to continental beer styles rather than full-on hoppy beers. The flavour profile suggests a floral/herby/spicy character, with hints of lemon. Whilst few people see France as a hop-growing nation, they are starting to increase their acreage (slightly), and Aramis is one of several varieties grown commercially.
