FLAVOUR:
We call this pretentious and pompous hop variety Bombastic because of the extraordinary amount of growth and flavour it produces. With 6cm cones and a strong aroma of passionfruit and white wine grapes, the palate gives way to a complex blend of passionfruit, blackberry, ginger, lime, melon and sauvignon blanc on the palate. Very fruity indeed.

HISTORY:
Bred by Wild About Hops in Eyrewell North Canterbury, the mother plant is Riwaka crossed with a Nelson Sauvin male.

GROWTH / YIELD:
Medium to large 6 cm hop cones on a vigourous bine maturing mid-season. Easy to pick.

BEER STYLES:
• HAZY IPA
• XPA
• PALE ALE
• GOLDEN ALES
