MITTLEFRUH HOPS

Hallertau Mittelfruh is a delicate aroma hop used mainly over the years in Lager type beers. However, it also succeeded in producing some of the lighter English cask-conditioned ales. This classic German aroma hop is often linked to Bavarian-style lager beers, known for an intense, pleasantly-harmonic bitterness. At one time, this landrace variety was the primary Hallertau hop, acclaimed for its highly praised aroma profile.

Grown in Hallertau, Spalt, Hersbruck, Tettnang and Baden-Bitburg-Rheinpfalz areas of Germany. “Hallertauer Mittelfrüher “ is the traditional Hallertau variety although its acreage is gradually decreasing due to disease.
