Note: These bags are better suited for grains and whole hops due to the looser weave. If using pellet hops, try our tighter mesh, reusable nylon bags.

  • You love making beer. You give careful attention to each step in the brewing process. That’s why having a simple yet elegant way to complete one of those steps is indispensable. This fine mesh bag makes adding hops to your brew, and then removing them again, a breeze! The ultra-fine mesh fabric keeps most of the hop material from entering your fermenter. Great for additions of pellet hops during the boil! It also works well for dry hopping in the keg, with pellet or whole hops.
 
Note: Dry hopping with pellets in a keg using this bag will throw a little matter into your beer, but it settles out pretty quickly and we have had good luck with this procedure.

Galena is a classic American hop that was been used in many quintessential craft beers. Galena features great bittering with neutral character. Medium, pleasant hoppiness. Strong, somewhat floral, pleasant aroma. We use this hop quite a bit in an assortment of styles.


MoreBeer! & Galena - a little fun history
Galena was the original bittering hop we used in most of our kits thought the 90's. We later switched to using Magnum but many of our original customers still really like this hop. Regan Dillon, MoreBeer!'s second customer and later partner, was a big champion of this variety through the 1980's and 1990's. Regan still loves this hop so if you happen to run into Regan at our Concord store or at a festival you can become instant friends by saying "Man, I don't know why Galena isn't used more!"
