Motu Ihupuku
Nectaron is a brand new hop from New Zealand and perhaps the most talked about one since Nelson Sauvin. We double hopped with Nectaron and Nelson Sauvin and created something special that oozes rip, tropical fruit flavours. You could say we went to the ends of the earth to get it just right.

WHAT IS INDIA PALE ALE?
India Pale Ale, or IPA is a bigger, hoppier version of a pale ale. It is commonly believed that this beer was originally brewed for the East Indian market in the 1800’s, and therefore hopped more heavily and brewed to a higher strength to help preserve the beer’s freshness during the shipping. The colour ranges from pale yellow to amber with a malt flavour meant to balance the firm bitterness and very forward hop flavour.
