Note
A traditional brewing variety from Germany's Hallertau region; the most widely grown aroma hop in the world. Alpha acids 3–5%, with a light floral, herbal aroma. A perennial climber; the top growth dies back every year and resprouts in spring. The cones are also valued for sleep pillows and herbal tea. The spring shoots are edible. Thanks to its fast growth it is also used as a green screen.
🌱 From the Garden — Personal Notes
I planted it 4 years ago and it has spread on its own. I use it as a climber. I'm planning to make sleep pillows from the cones. (translated from Turkish)
