This standout hop brings an exciting mix of red fruit, candied sweetness, bright citrus, and tropical fruit notes, offering brewers a truly distinctive flavour profile that sets it apart from conventional varieties. Bold yet versatile, it introduces a fresh dimension to modern hop-forward beers.
In hazy styles, it produces expressive layers of ripe mango, juicy berry flavours, and vibrant citrus character. It has also demonstrated exceptional biotransformation potential, particularly when dry hopped during active fermentation, helping to unlock additional complexity and intensity in the finished beer. The result is a rich, fruit-driven aroma profile that continues to evolve throughout the brewing process.
Equally effective as a feature hop or as part of a blend, this variety offers brewers tremendous creative flexibility. Its unique character can shine on its own while also complementing and enhancing other popular hops.
It pairs exceptionally well with varieties such as Citra®, Simcoe®, Nelson Sauvin®, Motueka®, and Riwaka®, creating layered and dynamic flavour combinations that are ideal for contemporary pale ales, IPAs, and hazy beer styles.
A vibrant, fruit-packed hop that delivers innovation, versatility, and unmistakable character in every brew.
