Kohia Nelson is Freestyle Hop's botanical blend which extends their love of the unique flavours of New Zealand grown crops. They have been experimenting with a process to add botanicals to hops to produce a uniform pellet that has something really unexpected to it. Their latest version of that blend combines Nelson Sauvin and Rakau with New Zealand passionfruit. 

NZH-101 is a triploid variety that was crossed by Dr. Ron Beatson in 2012 through NZ Hops' partnership breeding program with Plant and Food Research. After performing well in the small plot trials and early brewing trials, it was fast tracked by our Grower Committee to the NZ Hops trial hop farm in 2017. This has been evaluated further through the Bract Brewing Project in 2022 for its high mite resistance, desirable late training date, high yield, and excellent machine harvestability.

The unique oil chemistry profile produces unique flavours and aromas of lime and ripe mandarin, melon and tropical fruit.

Superdelic™ is a triploid variety (cultivar) that was crossed by Dr. Ron Beatson in 2012 through the NZ Hops partnership breeding program with Plant and Food Research (PFR). Superdelic™ was developed from both European and North American ancestry. After showing promise in clonal selection trials, and showing sensory attributes of berry fruit in pilot brewing trials, Superdelic was fast-tracked into the NZ Hops trial hop farm programme in 201, due to its unique aroma and chemistry profile.

This exceptional hop is a playful number, and the unique oil chemistry profile produces red fruit, candy, citrus and tropical fruit characteristics, offering brewers something totally different to use in their craft.

Superdelic™ is a versatile hop that can be used as a single hop addition and has great synergies in combination with other hops. Pairs well with Citra, Simcoe, Nelson Sauvin, Motueka and Riwaka.

Passionately crafted over 17 years, Nectaron® provides an intense mix of distinctive pineapple stone fruit citrus that lends itself perfectly to a range of beer styles including NEIPA, IPA, Pale Ales and Lagers. Nectaron is best used late or when dry hopping and has proven itself as an award winning hop, delivering a consistent dose of high quality tropical hop character every time.

Formally known as HORT 4337, Nectaron took the brewing world by storm when it was released in 2020 and has been in hot demand ever since!

Typical AA: 9.5% - 11.5%

**NOTE: This is the same hop as HORT 4337, but comes in the new Nectaron® branding.

Finally, we've got our hands on "The Bruce"! This exciting New Zealand hop blend has been created by Freestyle Hops and already made award winning beers.

The Bruce is a vibrant, aromatic and concentrated blend of Freestyle Hops created in honor of Bruce Eggers. To make The Bruce they've used early Nelson Sauvin, early Motueka, late Pacifica and mid Pacific Jade (that's the picking times). The aroma has fresh gooseberry, citrus peel, ripe tropical fruit and orange blossom. When brewed, the complex aromatics remain true to rubbing.

This trial hop with Hersbrucker Pure parentage shows pronounced forward citrus characters of lemon and lime, sweet hay and spices.

Typical AA: 9-10%
