Abstract
The hop varieties Northern Brewer, Brewers' Gold, Bullion, Cluster, Pride of Ringwood and the new variety ‘B23’ were grown in Tasmania and their essential oils analysed, primarily by combined gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The results for those varieties previously studied were similar to the published reports, while Pride of Ringwood and B23 are reported for the first time. In particular, the selinadiene content of the six oils was examined. High levels of α- and β-selinenes were recorded in Pride of Ringwood. Mass spectral data for these two selinadienes is presented in full to facilitate future identification. An attempt is made to clarify some of the confusion in the area of sesquiterpene hydrocarbons in hops.Keywords
