Sterling hop pellets are a US-bred, dual-purpose hop prized for Saaz-like herbal aroma. Homebrewers use them for hop-forward lagers, Belgian ales and other continental styles, both in the kettle and for aroma. This 1 oz BSG HandCraft package is nitrogen-flushed to protect freshness.
- 1 oz pellet hops
- Dual purpose: aroma first, with alpha acids that also contribute in the kettle
- Herbal, Saaz-like character with candied citrus, sweet grass, spice and dried hay
- Pedigree includes Saaz, Cascade, Brewers Gold and Early Green
- Released in 1998 as a higher-alpha Saaz replacement with better disease resistance and storability
- Nitrogen-flushed, oxygen and light-barrier packaging

Frequently Asked Questions
What can I use instead of Saaz?
Sterling was bred as a higher-alpha Saaz replacement and shares its herbal character, so it works well in pilsners and continental lagers.
How should I store hops?
Keep the sealed package cold, ideally in the freezer, and use promptly after opening.
