Introducing the NZ Pale Ale: A Sensory Journey of Hop Excellence!
With a harmonious blend of Taiheke hops on the hot side and dry-hopped with the dynamic trio of Riwaka, Nectaron, and Nelson Sauvin hops, this beer delivers an extraordinary hop-forward experience that will captivate your senses. 

The combination of Gladfield Light Crystal and Toffee malt, beautifully layered upon a base of American Ale malt, creates a sturdy foundation for the hops to shine. This grain bill contributes a subtle sweetness and a touch of caramel complexity, complementing the hop profile without overpowering it. 

With each sip, you'll discover the remarkable flavours that these hops bring to the forefront. The Taiheke hops, added during the whirlpool, mimicking hop dipping, infuses the beer with a vibrant burst of citrus zest, lime and grapefruit, tantalising your taste buds from the first sip.

The dry hopping takes the flavour experience to new heights as the Riwaka hops provide distinctive grapefruit and resinous notes, the Nectaron hops contribute juicy tropical and stone fruit flavours, and the Nelson Sauvin hops add a distinctively vinous and white wine-like character, with hints of gooseberry and passion fruit.

Balancing the hop intensity is a moderate bitterness that showcases the hops' full potential without overwhelming the palate. The result is a beer that offers a harmonious interplay between the vibrant hop flavours and the smooth, malt-driven body, ensuring a balanced and enjoyable drinking experience.

Muntons Oat Malt Extract is a combination of the finest barley and oats, making the perfect base for you to create hazy, New England style IPA’s. Use this unique malt extract to make a wort or blend it in with your all grain brew and make your own unique beer.

Protafloc granules is a granular carrageenan product which is added to wort in the kettle to enhance protein removal as the wort cools. 

Benefits

• Natural product which removes substantial quantities of haze forming material without affecting head retention
• Produces brighter worts, reducing the amount of finings required later
• Increases rate of fermentation and attenuation
• Increases filter runs
• Prolongs shelf life in small pack beers

Application

Protafloc Granules should be added to the kettle ten to fifteen minutes prior to the end of the boil or to the whirlpool if this is not possible. This allows the powder to dissolve and disperse the carrageenan into the wort. Should Protafloc be added early in the boil, degradation of the polymer may occur and product efficiency is lost. The reaction between wort proteins and carrageenan is pH dependant and occurs at an optimum pH of 5.3. Below pH 4.4, the reaction does not occur and little benefit is gained from using Kettle finings.

Dosage

The usual dosage rate is 0.0075g - 0.048g per litre of wort. This equates to 0.18g - 1.15g for 24 litres of wort.

Gladfield’s Sour Grapes Malt is designed to be used to adjust pH in the brew house mash.

As a guide, 1% of this milled malt will drop mash pH by 0.1. It can also add a mild lactic sourness to the brewed beer. We recommended between 1% and 5% of our Sour Grapes Malt is used to achieve target mash pH.

Use: Use to lower mash pH.

Rate: Up to 5%
