Hallertau Mittelfrüh possesses the classic noble aroma popular in all of the traditional German styles. Humulene is the prominent oil in the hop and comprises around half (45-55%) of the total oils. It has a mild bittering potential (3-5.5% AA), but is clean, crisp, and perfect for pilsners. Hallertau Mittelfrüh has seen a recent boom in popularity, with both farmers and growers, due to recently disease-free crops.
