It has a long history of tobacco and hop production. <BR/><BR/>The hops called Riwaka and Motueka were until recently called Saaz with a prefix at the end e.g. Saaz B . NZ hops decided to sex them up with Kiwi names.Kieran Haslett-Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04562970144894398803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629758183547510158.post-70918300197994491472008-03-19T10:03:00.000+00:002008-03-19T10:03:00.000+00:00Martin is correct, Tyson is not.

Also look out for Riwaka and Nelson Sauvin hops in northern hemisphere beers. I know that Twickenham Fine Ales are using Riwaka in one of their beers.Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08122623789276155279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629758183547510158.post-28301228969891576052008-03-16T17:23:00.000+00:002008-03-16T17:23:00.000+00:00Yes,a great beer.

BTW, I pronounce it Mo-too-ka as in the NZ river, which I presume, the hop was named after.Sat In A Pubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08123038980796000837noreply@blogger.com
