The thought occured to me the other day about how hop varieties grown in different countries, or even different regions taste subtlly different (or even quite a lot different) but they are still named the same - or their parent name is retained, like the Goldings family.
But what's to stop the same hop being renamed when grown in another country? Like Willamette and Fuggles...
I wonder if Galaxy could be an American hop grown here exhibiting different fruitiness characters that let it be renamed? Probably not, but if does make ya think of similar hops grown in different countries.
