Mangrove Jack’s Recipe Range gives you a flexible new way to brew at home. Start with one of six numbered malt extract cans, then combine it with a Mangrove Jack’s Hop Blend, Brew Enhancer and Craft Series Yeast to create one of more than 40 different recipes. The formula stays the same — Can + Hop Blend + Enhancer + Craft Series Yeast = Recipe — but the beer you make is entirely up to you.

Mangrove Jack’s H7 Zesty Hop Blend combines Lemon Drop, Wakatu and Motueka hop pellets in one ready-to-use sachet, delivering lively citrus character without the need to source and weigh three separate hop varieties.

Add it directly to the fermenter once your beer reaches the specific gravity stated in your chosen recipe. There is no need to stir; simply allow the hops a few days to infuse before bottling or kegging.

What Does H7 Zesty Add?

H7 Zesty contributes:

• Fresh lemon
• Orange peel
• Bright citrus aroma
• A lively, refreshing hop character

The combination of Lemon Drop, Wakatu and Motueka makes this blend particularly well suited to saisons, wheat beers, pale ales and other light, refreshing beer styles.

How to Use

Add the hop pellets directly to the fermenter once the beer reaches the specific gravity stated in the relevant Mangrove Jack’s Recipe Range instructions.

There is no need to stir the hops into the beer. Leave them in contact with the beer for the period specified in the recipe, then package as normal once fermentation is complete.

Use the full sachet, multiple sachets or the specified portion depending on the recipe you are following.

Mangrove Jack’s Recommended Recipe: Saison

Mangrove Jack’s recommends using H7 Zesty Hop Blend in the following combination:

• Can: 1 Lager
• Hop Blend: ½ x H7 Zesty Hop Sachet
• Enhancer: E1 Light Enhancer
• Yeast: M29 French Saison Yeast
• Makes: 20 litres
• Approximate ABV: 5.0%

The H7 Zesty Hop Blend adds lemon and orange-peel character to the clean base of 1 Lager. E1 Light Enhancer supports fermentation without adding excessive sweetness, while M29 French Saison Yeast brings the dry finish and expressive fermentation character associated with the style.

Suitable Beer Styles

H7 Zesty works particularly well in:

• Saison
• Belgian-style pale ale
• Wheat beer
• Citrus pale ale
• Refreshing golden ale
