Australian Galaxy Hop Profile
Galaxy® is one of the most recognized, sought-after hop varieties in the world, celebrated for juicy flavors of peach, guava, passionfruit, and orange. A cross between Perle and a high-alpha Australian hop, Galaxy® brings a high concentration of essential oils and alpha acids (13-18.5%). Use it in any hop-forward pale ale, IPA, or hazy style — especially in the whirlpool or dry hop to maximize the flavor. Galaxy weaves seamlessly with the usual suspects of Citra® and Mosaic® without getting lost, and it shines brightly on its own. This punchy, Australian classic is built to make your beer explode with tropical character.
