Wakatu

Wakatu is a triplod variety that came from an open pollination of Hallertau Mittelfruh and a New Zealand-derived male. It was released in 1988, as Hallertau Aroma, Wakatu was renamed in 2011.

Wakatu is a dual-purpose hop that can be used in all hop additions throughout the brewing process.

Wakatu has a pronounced earthy-sweet floral Hallertau character underscored by tropical fruit notes. Other specific aroma descriptors include restrained floral notes and freshly zested lime.
