HISTORY:

The Hallertau varieties are considered noble hops and refers to their high amounts of humulene, low amounts of alpha acids and high aromatic qualities.
HALLA® was grown from seed brought by German immigrants last century and is named after the Scandinavian goddess of the earth whose name denotes strength and power and has several plants associated with her including the holly, hop, yew & elder.
GROWTH/YIELD:
Halla® is an bright green aromatic hop with an alpha acid rating at 6%-7%.
HALLA® retains all of the characteristics of Hallertauer Mittelfrüh (middle early) and apart from a slightly higher alpha it is virtually indistinguishable from it.
