NELSON SAUVIN™ NEW ZEALAND

Since this hop’s release in 2012, it’s become unmistakably one of the most popular hop varieties for brewers and beer drinkers across the world. With intense aromas of mango, pine, tangerine, and lime, this dual-purpose hop has become a workhorse variety on all sides of the brew and elevates any style of beer its used in. Mosaic is the first daughter of Simcoe and Nugget and showcases that lineage through its versatility in the brewing process as both a viable aroma and bittering option.

Known for its intense citrus notes, this hop has quickly gained popularity amongst brewers and consumers alike and is widely considered one of the most popular varieties for hoppy beer styles since its release in 2007 by Hop Breeding Co. Ltd. Citra’s popularity is obvious for a reason, lending notes of intensely ripe citrus, apricot, peach, and lime aromas to beers. Its intense hop profile is in part due to its high Myrcene oil percentages and high Alpha Acid, despite not being a viable bittering hop. This hop pairs well with other varieties like Pink, El Dorado, Idaho 7, or holds its own well in hop-forward beers.

Known for being "Cascade on steroids," this high alpha dual-purpose variety makes for a nice foundational bittering hop, while still providing loads of value as an aroma hop on the cold side. It can be described as fruity and earthy, combining notes of berry, grapefruit, and apricot, with pronounced aromas of pine and resin. Simcoe can find a place in most hoppy-style beers, both as a bittering hop and as a late addition, and is a staple hop in some of the most revered West Coast IPAs.

Known for its versatility in any stage of the brew, this piney hop was released in 1985 and is a cross between a Petham Golding and USDA male.
