NZ Motueka CY25 brings New Zealand-grown Motueka pellets to brewers on both sides of the lager-ale line. It is a strong fit for New Zealand pilsner, modern lager, hoppy pale ale, and any recipe where a bright, zesty Southern Hemisphere signature should lead or support the beer.

Expect fresh lime, lemon zest, and a light tropical background over a clean noble-adjacent base. Motueka performs consistently across late-kettle, whirlpool, and dry-hop additions, with results that track closely to the lot analysis on the COA.

This hop is available in professional brewing formats, including 11 lb foils and 44 lb boxes. Choose the 11 lb nitrogen-flushed foil for maximum freshness on aroma-critical additions, or the 44 lb box when this hop anchors a recurring program and purchasing efficiency matters.

Hop analysis values vary by crop year and lot. For exact alpha acid, beta acid, total oil, and lot number, confirm the active lot through the COA or product documents before final recipe calculations. Store cold and sealed until use.

Brewer Notes

NZ Motueka Hops — Nelson's Lime-Zest Noble

Motueka is New Zealand's zesty lime-and-citrus workhorse — a Saaz-descended aroma hop that reads clean enough for lager and bright enough for hoppy pale ale.
Best Brewing Fit
New Zealand pilsner, modern lager, hoppy pale ale, XPA, and wheat beer. Shines in late-kettle and whirlpool roles where its lime-zest brightness stays fresh.
Brewing Guidance
A dual-audience hop: lager brewers use it as a modern noble alternative, hop-forward brewers layer it under bigger tropical varieties. One of the most versatile NZ hops to stock.
Pro Brew Advantage
In stock in Fort Worth with same-day shipping on orders placed by 3 PM CT, or noon when it rides a pallet (2 PM Fridays). Rides the malt pallet under the flat-rate freight program, so hops ship for pennies when they join a pallet order.
Aroma Notes
Fresh lime, lemon zest, light tropical fruit over a clean noble-adjacent base
Best Beer Styles
New Zealand Pilsner; Modern Lager; Hoppy Pale Ale; XPA; Wheat Beer
