IPA IS DEAD - ELLA Download BeerXML
THIS BEER IS
2015 IPA is Dead Series. Supremely floral, this hugely under-rated hop is related to Galaxy and was first cultivated in the Australian state of Victoria. Initially given the same name as a certain Eurolager, their lawyers got involved and the St- prefix was dropped. Ella displays subtle notes of spice, but is fundamentally a truly floral bouquet, redolent of the Southern Hemisphere.

BREWER'S TIP
These beers need to hit FG to really pop. If you're fermentation is struggling, whip up a starter and re-pitch to get some viable yeast in there to finish the job.
