    $6.30

  4. Pacifica Hops - Pellets (NZ)
    $9.50

    Pacifica Hops - Pellets (NZ)

    The Pacifica™ brings something of a blend of new and old-world taste descriptors to the brewers' forum. Orange marmalade aptly describes the citrus aroma notes achieved through late addition. Bittering quality is such that early kettle additions net a soft yet solid finish even in highly bittered beers.
  5. Fuggle Hops - Pellets (NZ)
    $9.20

    Fuggle Hops - Pellets (NZ)

    Fuggle was first noticed growing "wild" in the hop garden of George Stace Moore's house at Horsmonden in Kent, England in 1861. In 1875 it was introduced by Richard Fuggle who lived in the village of Brenchley (not far from Horsmonden) and hence it was called Fuggle. The aroma is earthier and less sweet than Kent Goldings. Substitutes: Willamette.
  6. Riwaka Hops - Pellets (NZ)
    $13.80

    Riwaka Hops - Pellets (NZ)

    If you want to say “hops” in your beer then this variety says it all. The pure weight of the oil character experienced during selection carries right through to the glass. A punchy addition to the new-world styles of Pale Ale and regional Pilseners. A cult hero that is established in the New Zealand craft beer culture.

    This batch is from 2022 harvest.

  7. Waimea Hops - Pellets (NZ)
    $11.40

    Waimea Hops - Pellets (NZ)

    Waimea™ is a new New Zealand variety (2012), originally bred for high alpha and bittering qualities, but it is really a dual-use hop. It’s fresh-crushed citrus and understated pine characteristics are very prominent despite its high alpha content. It is useful across many different beer styles.
  8. Willamette Hops - Pellets (NZ)
    $10.00

    Willamette Hops - Pellets (NZ)

    NZ Willamette Hops is an aroma variety with a mid alpha acid content at 7.0%-9.0%.

    Although Willamette can contribute good bittering, NZ Willamette dominates its usage for its flavour and aroma. This results in a delicate peppery herbaceous spice that has both fruit and floral essence. This translates well into most beer styles and can be used in Stouts through to Pale ales and lagers. In big hoppy beers Willamette also pairs well with other citrusy hops.

  9. Pacific Jade Hops - Pellets (NZ)
    $7.60

    Pacific Jade Hops - Pellets (NZ)

    Suited for use as a bittering hop with some excellent results also being seen in dual purpose applications, with a soft bitterness attributable to the low cohumulone. The citrus aroma and flavour notes work well to temper malt sweetness in “fullish” Ales especially when used moderately as a finishing hop. Pacific Jade™ is also well suited to balance dryer Lager styles when employed as an “up-front” kettle addition to showcase its bittering qualities.

  10. Kohatu Hops - Pellets (NZ)
    $6.10

    Kohatu Hops - Pellets (NZ)

    Released in 2011, Kohatu® is a relatively new hop grown in New Zealand. It is a big aroma hop with intense floral characters of pine needles and tropical fruit and displays great quality of bitterness and well rounded fruity hop characters.
