Product Details

Taste & Characteristics

Motueka Cryo showcases aromas of Fruity, lemon, lime, tropical. Typical alpha acids are around 15.3 percent, giving you plenty of room to tune bitterness and aroma.

Where It Shines

  • Modern IPAs and pale ales bursting with hop character
  • Juicy and hazy styles that highlight tropical fruit
  • Hoppy lagers and experimental hybrid beers

Role in the Brewhouse

This hop shines in late boil, whirlpool, and dry hop additions where its expressive flavor and aroma can take center stage. As a cryo hop, it delivers concentrated lupulin flavor with less vegetal material in the kettle and fermenter. The 1 oz size is perfect for test batches, recipe trials, or topping up a hop schedule.

Brewer's Guidance

For a standard 5 gallon batch, lean on another variety for bittering and let this hop shine late in the process. Use roughly 1 to 3 ounces split between whirlpool and dry hop depending on how intense you want the aroma. Because the alpha acid level is on the higher side, start with smaller bittering additions and increase only if needed.
