Some American growers also grow a version of the Czech Saazer hop, although American versions are usually considered to lack true noble hop character, with higher myrcene and total oil than true Saaz Saazer.
Saaz is a difficult hop to grow in the United States due to inconsistent yields and susceptibility to disease.
