Description

'Galena' was developed as part of the breeding programme of the state of Idaho. It originates from a cross between Brewers Gold and an unknown male breeding strain.
In 1978 'Galena' was launched as a variety at the same time as 'Nugget'.
Galena is characterised by a high alpha acid content and also a relatively high beta acid content and has good storage stability.
Due to its high alpha and harvest yield, Galena is often used as a classic bittering hop, similar to Nugget and its related types. Galena is also sometimes used as a late hop addition in the brewhouse.

Galena is the ancient Roman name for the mineral galenite. It is found in the soils of Oregon and gives its name to the hop variety grown there.

Aroma and flavour characteristics
Mild to moderate with a surprisingly pleasant tropical citrus quality. Can have a slightly "rustic" character that shows its Brewers Gold ancestry.
