Riwaka after drying - 140g this year vs 80g last year. And there is still that less mature and smaller bine that I might get to harvest. Likely bringing it up to 2X the harvest in year two of growing these. When I split the rhizomes and can grow maybe three sets of bines I’ll be in fantastic shape for Riwaka.
Now to keep nurturing my Wakatu, East Kent Goldings and Perle.
Might need to plant in a new area if they keep being this successful
Brewing a Czech Pale Lager (about 11°P) with a whirlpool of my own Riwaka hops from last season. Dried and vacuum packed for just such an occasion.
Last minute modification - 40g of whole cone Riwaka from my bines. Vacuum packed in the freezer for just such an occasion
At 10 minutes so should give me a nice bit of aroma. Let’s see how it turns out.
My home grown Riwaka Czech style Pilsner. The Lukr faucet delivers that gorgeous foam as always.
It's that time of the year 😋 Time for fresh hop beers.
Sprig & Fern's Monohoppily Fresh Hop Hazy singles out just one variety – fresh #Riwaka, hand-selected from Holmdale Farm in Wakefield and Mac Hops in Motueka.
😋 Lots of citrus, hoppy, bread/doughy and some bitterness + sweetness. Almost like marmalade on toast.
Quick harvest of one bine of my Riwaka hops. Storm coming in and it is getting windy. Maybe a bit early to harvest these but I don’t want them to get destroyed and then have nothing. Will see what happens with the other bine that I’m leaving unpicked.
Four trays go in to the dehydrator at low low temp. Next week some of these will go into the whirlpool of a Czech pale lager. They are a child of Saaz after all.
My first Fresh Hop beer of the 2023 season in New Zealand. Super local brewery as well. Planning to pop over there for one fresh on tap this week also.
