Late Cluster L-16 is one of the Cluster series of hops which is an excellent export hop in the U.S. American breweries tend to favour Super Alpha hops over clusters, even though they have excellent storage stability and good yield potential. They have moderate alpha acid content. All the Yakima Valley Cluster hops are interchangeable in their brewing characteristics and quality.
