GR Spalt CY25 from Spalter Hopfen is the protected-origin classic itself — Spalt Spalter g.U., the landrace hop grown in the Spalt region of Bavaria for centuries and the only German hop carrying protected designation of origin status. For brewers building German pilsner, helles, Kölsch, or Altbier where authenticity is part of the beer's story, this is the reference variety, sourced through the growers' own trading company.

Expect delicate, noble character: herbal, earthy, and finely spicy, with the restraint that made Spalt hops the standard for classic continental lager. Spalt Spalter is a late-kettle and whirlpool hop first — use it where the hop should perfume rather than push, in beers built on pilsner malt and clean lager fermentation.

This hop is available in 11 lb foils and 44 lb boxes, but allocation is limited — Spalt Spalter is grown only in its protected region and supply is finite each crop year. If it anchors a core brand, talk to us about a crop-year contract to secure your volume; for trials and seasonal releases, the 11 lb foil is the right entry point.

Hop analysis values vary by crop year and lot. The CY25 lot runs 3.7% alpha; for exact alpha, beta, and total oil values, refer to the COA or contact our team. Cold-stored in Fort Worth and Atlanta and lot-documented from Spalt to your dock.

Brewer Notes

Spalt Spalter — The Protected-Origin Original

Spalt Spalter is the landrace hop of Spalt, Bavaria, grown there for centuries and the only German hop carrying protected designation of origin (g.U.) status. Fine, noble, and delicate, it's the reference variety for classic continental lager character — and the flagship of our direct partnership with the region's growers.

Best Brewing Fit

German pilsner, helles, Kölsch, and Altbier, wherever authenticity is part of the beer's story. Use it in late-kettle and whirlpool additions where the hop should perfume rather than push, over pilsner malt and clean lager fermentation.

Brewing Guidance

Allocation is limited — Spalt Spalter grows only in its protected region and supply is finite each crop year. Start with the 11 lb foil for evaluation; if it anchors a core brand, talk to us about a crop-year contract to secure volume before planning production around it.

Pro Brew Advantage
