Released in 2012, Hallertau Blanc is one of several new German varieties with bold flavor profiles, perfect for American-style Ales.
Hallertau Blanc is known for containing a large percentage of Myrcene in its oil content, so whirlpooling or dry-hopping will bring its character to the forefront!
While you can use this in many of the typical hop-forward beers such as India Pale Ale, this hop can find its home in Belgian style Ales, Wheat Beers, and American Sour Ales.
