Developed in Idaho from Brewer's Gold ancestry and released commercially in 1978, it became an important bittering variety in American brewing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlthough primarily used for bittering, Galena has more character than its reputation might suggest. Alongside its crisp, rounded bitterness, it offers notes of blackcurrant, citrus and subtle dark fruit, with gentle herbal undertones.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith its high alpha acid content, Galena is an economical choice for early boil additions, particularly in beers requiring a firm but balanced bitterness. Later additions can bring out its fruitier qualities, making it useful beyond the traditional bittering role.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGalena works particularly well in American pale ales, IPAs, porters, stouts and stronger ales. It's also an interesting option for brewers looking to experiment with something different from the more familiar American bittering hops.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHop Characteristics\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e USA\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e T90 Hop Pellets\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 2024\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlpha Acid:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 13.10%\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAroma \u0026amp; Flavour:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Blackcurrant, citrus, dark fruit and subtle herbal notes\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUsage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Bittering, late boil and aroma additions\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBeer Styles:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e American Pale Ale, IPA, Porter, Stout, Amber Ale and Barley Wine\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHop Pairings\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGalena works particularly well alongside \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/grainoversands.co.uk\/products\/cascade-us-t90-hop-pellets-american-hops?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=cascade\u0026amp;_psid=fe55224a0\u0026amp;_ss=e\" title=\"Cascade US T90 hop pellets\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUS Cascade\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, providing a firm, balanced bitterness while Cascade adds its familiar grapefruit and floral aroma.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/grainoversands.co.uk\/products\/centennial-2023?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=cent\u0026amp;_psid=076030013\u0026amp;_ss=e\" title=\"Centennial T90 hop pellets\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCentennial\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/grainoversands.co.uk\/products\/centennial-2023?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=cent\u0026amp;_psid=076030013\u0026amp;_ss=e\" title=\"Centennial T90 hop pellets\"\u003e \u003c\/a\u003eis another excellent companion, bringing bright citrus and floral notes that complement Galena's more restrained fruit character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor something a little different, try pairing Galena with \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/grainoversands.co.uk\/products\/willamette-2023?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=will\u0026amp;_psid=3a4a1e20f\u0026amp;_ss=e\" title=\"Willamette T90 hop pellets\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWillamette\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e in an American porter or brown ale, combining Galena's bittering qualities with Willamette's earthy, floral and gently spicy character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGalena is also worth exploring in a single-hop American amber ale, using early additions for bitterness and later additions to discover its distinctive blackcurrant and citrus notes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grain Over Sands","offers":[{"title":"50g","offer_id":55589115920766,"sku":"GOS57a","price":2.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"100g","offer_id":55589115953534,"sku":"GOS57b","price":4.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g","offer_id":55589115986302,"sku":"GOS57c","price":10.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g","offer_id":55589116019070,"sku":"GOS57d","price":19.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1g","offer_id":55711460196734,"sku":"GOS57rb","price":0.06,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0913\/8582\/3614\/files\/Galena_T90_Hop_Pellets_American_Hops.jpg?v=1791621609","url":"https:\/\/grainoversands.co.uk\/products\/galena","provider":"Grain Over Sands","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
