Available in whole cone and pellet formats, our hops are carefully processed and stored to maintain optimal freshness and quality.

Why Hops Matter

Hops are a vital ingredient in beer, contributing:

  • Bitterness to balance sweetness from malt

  • Aroma and flavour, ranging from earthy and herbal to citrus, pine, tropical fruit, and stone fruit

  • Preservative qualities to enhance beer stability and shelf life

We work closely with growers and breeders to stay ahead of new trends and bring you exciting, innovative hop varieties tailored to modern brewing demands.

Technical Expertise & Support

Choosing the right hops can make all the difference to your beer. Our technical team, with decades of brewing experience, can help you select varieties based on:

  • Alpha acid levels

  • Flavour and aroma profile

  • Brewing style and usage (bittering, late additions, dry hopping)

We also offer sensory analysis and contract options to ensure consistency across batches and brewing schedules.
