What Hops to use in a mexican cervesa

[100.bottles]

Hi everyone new to the forum.
Been brewing with my family for close to ten years

I have made a few batches of corona cervesa , and Im trying to find out what Hops to use in the kit brew.
Would anyone have any ideas what Hops Corona cervesa use in their watery mexican delight

Thanks for the ideas guys

I believe it is Galena. But they use a special extract which can not really be cloned by standard hop additions. You can get close...

and I found galena hops there and the comment seems good...

(Great neutral bittering hop, whereas later additions can give a
blackcurrant aroma & strong fruity character. The hop of Corona.
If you could choose just1 bittering hop, this would be the hop of choice.)

But how much hop pellet for a 23 lt brew 10 g ?

thanks again for the tips

Well, the amount of hops you use are going to be governed by the recipe you use, and personal taste. Have a search around these forums. Plenty of threads on Corona!
