Crystal Hop Pellets: 1 oz.

Unsurprisingly, given its Hallertau parentage, Crystal excels in continental lager and wheat styles, as well as Belgian ales. But since it also includes some Cascade, some enterprising craft brewers put it to use in their IPA hop loads as well.

• Mild, sweet, and delicate. Highly floral with a touch of noble spice; heavy doses or dry hopping can bring out a bit more intensity with suggestions of citrus peel and dried lemongrass.

Country of Origin:

• USA

Suggested Substitute:

• Mt. Hood, Strisselspalt, Hallertau

Alpha Acid Range:

• 3 - 6%
