Hallertau Tradition Hop Pellets (DE)

Tradition Hops

Tradition, also known as Hallertau Tradition, is a variety bred and released at Hüll Research Center in 1993. The hop is a cross between Hallertau Gold and a Hüll experimental variety. It is characterized by its fine aroma and moderate bitter content and can be compared to Hallertauer Mittelfrüh. Tradition stands out due to good yields which remain relatively stable even in difficult growing years — making it a reliable and expressive noble-style German aroma hop for traditional lager and ale styles.
