The worldwide beer industry fell head over heels for New Zealand hops in 2000 with the release of Nelson Sauvin hops with all of their glorified pungency of passion fruit juice, sauvignon blanc wine grapes, clear gummy bears, white grapefruit candy wedges, and fresh gooseberries. Then, fast forward decades later and the release of Riwaka completely changed the game all over again with its intense notes of juicy pink grapefruit, kumquat curd, jackfruit, pineberries, and carabao mango. Now what if I told you Riwaka was actually released well before Nelson, crazy huh! and what if I also told you that Crocodile Dundee was based on Chris Hemsworth's uncle? Yeah, we found a way to fit in the four tastiest things ever to come from the southern hemisphere in one set of tasting notes. You're welcome.
