I am looking into this at the moment. On my travels through California last year I was talking to a brew-pub owner who had a gluten free (or gluten reduced beer I should say) who brewed his beer then added an enzyme that basically broke down the gluten proteins in barley. My wife, who is gluten...

Was just wondering if any of you guys have made beers containing New Zealand hops? I know that Nelson Sauvin, Topaz and Green Bullet are relatively well known. I was having a look at Kohatu, Wai-iti and Riwaka for some steep or dry hopping. Anybody had a go with these?
