DUAL PURPOSE HOPS
 Using these hops, the brewer can obtain the benefits of alpha and aroma in one hop. Even without the addition of extensive late hopping, use of our dual-purpose hops can provide a pleasant aroma and a full bittering alpha acid utilisation.
Hallertau Aroma:
This triploid Hallertau, bred from the German Hallertau Mittlefruh, is slightly less spicy than true Hallertau Mittlefruh. This hop variety has a nice mix of floral and slight citrus character. Hallertau Aroma has the ability to retain its clean taste even in older beers and is used for its aroma qualities by a number of major international brewers in different parts of the world.

Nelson Sauvin:
This is truly a hop with a difference. This variety imparts certain grape-like flavour to the beer and the name arose out of comments made during brewery trials, where the flavour was likened to that of Sauvignon Blanc, coincidentally also grown extensively in the region. Nelson Sauvin is an 11-12% alpha hop, with aroma qualities that are unique. (Nelson Sauvin data sheet)
