Pride of Ringwood Hops
These hops were not developed until the late 1950s so, for the first 20-odd years of its existence, Melbourne Bitter would have been brewed with other hops. I will modify the reference to Pride of Ringwood in a couple of weeks time if there are no objections. --MichaelGG (talk) 01:44, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

PoR was probably used from 1956 onwards in VB and other CUB beers. (You can infer this sort of info from the clues on the CUB site. They note VB was changed from a red ale to a lager in 1956.) PoR was derived from Pride of Kent, and are both clean bittering hops. Tasmanian wild hops appeared not to suffer from any diseases so CUB tried crossing that variety with PoK. PoR was born.203.221.203.50 (talk) 06:10, 21 May 2016 (UTC)
