I just want some freaking galaxy hops!

I hate it when they’re sold out everywhere. Makes me feel like pouting. Which I’m doing. Right now.

hmm…I guess you never saw my posts when they were available…guess you need to watch posts :slight_smile: I have 8 oz BTW… Just think though…they in in the harvest season for them right now I believe.

I know it’s just killing me. I’ve got three great recipes that revolve around them. I can adjust almost any recipe to substitute most any missing hops, but these ones are irreplaceable.

I like me some galaxy too (and amarillo which is also nowhere to found). Had a beer not long ago with mosaic and I thought it was reminiscent of galaxy.

I do have some mosaics left in the fridge from an old IRA I was trying to make… ironically enough I was using them in combination with other hops to recreate the profile of a recipe I used with galaxy hops :lol:

When I e-mailed Hops Direct a month or two ago, they said they expect to get some in June. I’ve been checking nearly every day. So far, no go. Will keep checking and post when I see them.

The southern hemisphere harvest should start trickling in stateside in the next couple of weeks, IME. I think Yakima Valley is expecting Galaxy in soon.

They have Galaxy, by the looks of it.

Does anyone know when the New Zealand harvest is exactly? If I can wait for some fresher pellets I’d prefer to do that… but if it’s going to be more than a month I might just go ahead and order these.

Looks like you opportunistic bastards took advantage of my waiting too long and bought the remaining stock out :lol:

No…they were not in stock last week when I replied as I checked before replying… :slight_smile:

We don’t have enough Galaxy - 2012 Limit 2 stock on hand for the quantity you selected. Please try again.

Oh I guess you’re right. They should put OUT OF STOCK underneath it like they did with the Amarillo. Oh well…sorry to get your hopes up!
I just bought some Chinook from them the other day since it seems they’re going fast this year also.

I feel your pain. A micro brewery in town makes an all galaxy apa that is one of my favorites which I make sure to get when they have it and I have been dying to brew my own but I always run into the same issue you have.

Thank you sir! Order placed. Of course, I couldn’t avoid adding a few other 8 oz packs since I’m paying for shipping anyway.

I feel like I need to find a 12 step program for hop hoarders.

2013 Galaxy for about $1 per ounce for a limited time. Pellet or leaf. I could have saved $10 if I would have just waited a few weeks.

Note that they have misclassified them on the link above, though. They’re from Australia, not New Zealand.

Edit: fixed typo

Says sold out. Damn.

This does not start until tomorrow and it’s not $1 a pounds, it’s $1 per OZ :slight_smile:

It says they are sold out, and I would gladly pay $16 a pound plus shipping for Galaxy. Its one of this year’s hot hops. Although I’ve tried El Dorado and it has some of the same characteristics. And I just scored some Mosaic that I’ll use for late additions in an AIPA.
