Ella™ Hop Profile
Previously named Stella, Ella™ is the little sister of the Australian superstar Galaxy®. Ella™ and Galaxy® share the same mother, but Ella's father is a variety from Spalt, Germany. This parentage gives Ella™ a pleasant floral aroma that is backed by soft spice. These qualities work best in lagers and pilsners, but Ella™ can be incorporated into Pale Ales and IPA during dry-hopping. This will preserve some of the lighter oils that are more fruity and tropical like in Galaxy®.

Ella Hops Description from HPA
CHARACTERISTICS
A low dose delivers soft florals and fragrant spices reminiscent of a noble variety, while a high dose delivers grapefruit and tropical flavours that can be used to balance heavier malt bills and strong yeast characters in many beer styles.
ANCESTRY
Ella™ was created by the HPA breeding program in 2001 and commercialised in 2011. Its ancestry is the result of a cross pollination of high alpha Australian and Spalt hops.
