A hazy pale ale with New Zealand Superdelic hops.

Tropical & stone fruit on the nose, with a really round and smooth body, tropical juiciness all the way through, clean, bright, a candy fullness, a touch of peach and low bitterness.

Superdelic, then Trial Hop NZH-102, is a triploid variety (cultivar) that was crossed by Dr. Ron Beatson in 2012 through @nzhopsltd partnership breeding program with Plant and Food Research. It later became commercially available in 2023 and soon became a fast favourite amongst breweries in Europe and America.

The Kernel featured Superdelic in their Southern Hemisphere Showcase in 2023 when they focused on New Zealand hops and found it particularly exciting because of its intense and exciting flavour profile. Some classic, tropical and citrus fruit notes are there with layers of more unique flavours like red fruits and sweets on top.

Malted barley. Dry and light-bodied to better showcase the individuality of the hops in both aroma and flavour. A basic recipe is followed, with each batch utilising different hop varieties from around the world based on seasonality, availability, and the whims of the brewer.
