HPA is the largest hop grower in Australia, backed by a team of experts in plant breeding, farm operations, customer service and brewing support. Their farms in Southern Tasmania and North-East Victoria have been growing hops for more than 150 years. They grow 90% of Australia’s hops, which is roughly 2% of hops grown around the world.
HPA’s breeding program has created a number of hugely successful flavour hops for brewers, including Galaxy®, Vic Secret™, Eclipse®, Ella™, Enigma® and Topaz™. As sole custodians, they care for their Aussie hops from the bine until they arrive at your brewery. In the US, their partner grower is John I. Haas. They offer HPA exclusive access to Hop Breeding Company (HBC) proprietary hops. While many suppliers carry Citra®, Mosaic®, Sabro®, Ekuanot®, Talus™, and Krush™, the Haas and HBC partnership in developing pest-resistant and disease-resistant hops with strong commercial qualities means HPA has access to the very best Citra® available, supported by significant quantities.
As regional representatives of the global BarthHaas group, the world’s largest supplier of hop products and services, HPA supply a huge range of consistently high-quality Aussie, NZ, US and European hops and liquid hop products so you can make consistently high-quality beers. They have a number of experienced Sales Reps located around the country. They love beer and they love visiting your breweries because it gives them a better understanding of your goals and how they can help you reach them.
