Hallertauer Mittelfrueh
A very popular variety with fine aroma and average bitter content. Because of its high susceptibility to wilt this variety suffered from a dramatic decrease in cultivation. Due to increasing demand and availability of virus-free plant material, Hallertauer Mittelfrueh has experienced a comeback. |

The analytical values are typical for each variety at harvest time but values can vary among crop years, growing areas, growers, and with aging after harvest. * Alpha Acids are determined by conductometric titration (EBC 7.4) in Europe. Alpha Acids for extracts are determined by HPLC (EBC 7.7 )in Europe. ** Storage is percent transformation after 6 months at room temperature.  | |
