Application Tip:

To fully capture the characteristics of Hallertau Blanc, add the variety during whirlpooling and/or dry hopping, ably taking full advantage of the remarkably high Myrcene fraction. With a pronounced tropical profile, Hallertau Blanc proves valuable for producing similar southern hemisphere styles, such as, IPA, American Blonde ale, New Zealand pilsner, Belgian ale, wheat beer and Brett fermentations.
