Hallertau Perle Hop Pellets
Perle is a classic German dual-purpose hop known for its excellent balance between bitterness and aroma. Bred at the Hüll Research Center in 1978, Perle quickly became one of the most popular hops in both commercial and home brewing thanks to its pleasantly spicy, herbal character and remarkable storage stability.
Its versatility allows it to shine in a wide range of beer styles — from clean German lagers to Belgian ales and modern blondes.

Packaging:
The hops are carefully weighed, nitrogen-flushed, and sealed in a light-proof, aluminum-coated package for optimal shelf life.
Flushing with nitrogen removes oxygen down to 0.6–0.8%, which preserves the hop oils and extends freshness during storage.
Store sealed packages in a cool place (<4 °C).
Once opened, compress and reseal (zip-lock or vacuum seal) and refrigerate to maintain peak aroma and flavor.
