Goes great with citra and mosaic.

Finally found them in stock.

I’m giving three stars because maybe my nose and tastebuds are missing something, or maybe I got a bad batch. When I opened the package of Galaxy I was waiting for the explosive tropic and citrus notes. What did I get? Bland earthy smells…I thought, maybe I’m developing COVID. Good thing I was also using Strata hops that day. So I open the bag of Strata to see how my nose was operating for that day: boom, dank and tropical smells like you read about. That ruled out COVID. So, ok, first impressions of Galaxy are not so great. Let’s see how it performs in a brew. I used a total of 5 ounces of Galaxy hops (FIVE) in a 5 gallon brew plus 1 ounce of Strata. All hops were used at flameout or dry hopped. The result? Zero tropical or fruity aromas. The beer has a pronounced Earthy and/or mineral feel. I’ve had a sulfur issue in the past (with a lager that I pressure fermented and should not have pressure fermented). This is not sulfur. It makes me think the hops were expired, but that’s hard to believe given the high demand for these hops. I have to say, I very strongly suspect the hops I purchased were not up to the standards of what Galaxy hops should be. I’ve been happy with Amarillo, Strata, Citrus. Mosaic, Idaho #7, Enigma…you name it. I was super stoked to try Galaxy since I was holding out on purchasing because of the price. What a letdown this has been. If this wasn’t a bad batch, then I can’t tell you why this hop gets so many rave reviews. Maybe in a few months I’ll buy again to see if it was me, or if it really was a skunked batch of hops. I still have 11 ounces of these hops to get through. Do I potentially ruin future beers, or just throw that $20 in the trash? I’m too cheap to toss it. If the next brew turns out to be trash, then I’ll be convinced the hops I got were bad, or Galaxy is just a terrible hop (I’m gonna go with my hunch and say it’s the first option).

Above all other hops.

Beautiful tropical aromas character in my NEIPA

Great hops! Used in my first NEIPA and they didn’t disappoint!

After reading the reviews, I brewed what was supposed to be the end-all tropical pale ale. I brewed with a total of 6 ounces of Galaxy, to include an 2 1/2 ounces in dry hop. While the beer turned out very good, and I would definitely use Galaxy again, it didn't quite meet my expectations for it's tropical flavor. Guess my expectations were set too high!

Was kind of expecting more unique flavors but was acceptable.

You can never go wrong with this

Made a delicious IPA

Brought through some nice tropical fruit flavors and aroma for my NEIPA. Used it to whirlpool and dry hop.

Clean crisp flavor. Makes for a very refreshing beer.

I use Galaxy in my favorite IIPA almost exclusively for late addition and whirlpool. Great fruity flavor and aromatic.

Intense aromatic. Used this as a day 8 dry hop in a NEIPA, paired with some el dorado.

Intense aromatics when used as a late edition/dry hop. Great crop.

I think these are my favorite hops - and for a Kiwi to say that about something from Australia is amazing. I tried them first as a hop tea to get a feel for them - I do this and add to my homemade gin and tonic as it helps show how it works against bitterness. Simply amazing. Huge citrus - more lime than lemon to me, then there is a strong undercurrent of fruit. Some say passionfruit but it's less distinct than that to me, certainly tropical though. Just brewed an IPA with it paired with Amarillo.

Fast shipping and very fresh hops!

Great aroma and flavor from these

I have used this with many other hops (Citra/Mosaic/Amarillo) and alone in NEIPAs. Works great both ways!

Does work in IPA/NEIPA’s! Great as a late kettle addition or dry hop. Impressive aroma and flavor.

These are my favorites. Combined with some Citra when dry hopping or just by themselves adds to any IPA

Tough to find hops that my LHBS did not have. Not sure if it was the packaging or the handling, but the pellet hops were partially crushed in the bag right out of the box. Still usable and they made it to the boil, but not totally satisfied.

I received my hopps quicker than expected, and wow so fragrant

Best smelling thing in the... well, in the galaxy.

No other hops quite like galaxy. Intense passion fruit livens up any IPA.

Worked great, smelled fresh

Yummy, Yummy, Yummy, Yummy, (20 characters required)

Have used these many time and the are a great addition to any iPad. Fantastic aroma! Many compliments from fellow Brewers!

Used these hops with a fruit wheat beer. Really lets the fruit shine. Good stuff.
