The whale of hops, Riwaka is named after the small settlement in the Tasman District of New Zealand’s South Island. Due to the climate needed for growth and a smaller production yield, it’s one of the most coveted hops from New Zealand. Riwaka’s abundant oil content is nearly twice that of its parent variety Saaz. With its high oil content and a 1:1 ratio of alpha to beta acids, this hop is known its strong sweet citrus notes and extreme flavor.
We love TIPA’s and we love Riwaka, so you know we had to do it. We wove Riwaka three times into the process of our Even More Unbalanced grain bill to create something stunning. Waka³ pours bright tangerine with aromas of oranges gummy slices, lemon wedges, and fresh cut grass. Its flavor is explosive with bright notes of orange juice, marmalade, limeade drink, earthy grass, and Smarties candy with a white pepper bite and an earthy grass component that complements the bright juicy elements. This beer is smooth for its size and the #EQjuice finish greats you after an explosion of flavors.
More to come!
