Wai-iti T90 3.2% AA Hop Pellets - Various Sizes

A truly modern triploid hop, Wai-iti brings forth a fresh splash of lime and stone fruit. It was released to brewers in 2011 and features higher beta acids than alpha acids, low cohumulone and robust oil content. Its heritage consists of notable varieties Hallertauer Mittelfrüh as a 1/3 parent and Liberty as its grandparent. Despite its low alpha content, low cohumulone and high farnesene would suggest a soft bitterness and potential suitability for single-hopped beers. When brewed as a mid-late addition, Wai-iti’s citrus aromas are said to take a back seat and make way for more of a stone-fruit presence. Wai-iti has been suggested by some as being similar to Riwaka yet more smooth and rounded. Characteristics: Lime citrus and stone fruit notes Purpose: Aroma Alpha Acid Composition: 2.5%-3.5% Beta Acid Composition: 4.5%-5.5%
