Analytical values for α‐acid content of thirteen varieties of hops from the 1983 crop are presented in relation to the district of production. For all varieties the tolerance aim of ±0·5% was achieved this year and variability of the crop was, in general, less than for previous years. As before, the results are acceptable for commercial purposes. The sampling rates have been considered and reductions in the rates for Bullion, Northern Brewer, Wye Northdown, Wye Target and Yeoman would be justified.
