This article discusses a specific variety of hops. For general information about selecting, using or propogating hops, see the main hop page

Hallertauer Tradition is a German aroma variety, derived from Hallertauer Gold, which was bred as a replacement for Hallertau Hallertauer Mittelfrüher. It combines a flavor said to be similar to [[Hallertauer Mittelfrüher with significantly improved disease and pest resistance and higher yield.

As with Hallertau Hallertauer Mittelfrüher, the "Hallertauer" in Hallertauer Tradition is part of the name of the cultivar, and hops of this cultivar grown outside the may also be referred to as Hallertauer Tradition, although it is sometimes simply called Tradition. However, because this variety is currently grown primarily in the Hallertau, the full name is not generally used, and the hop is generally sold simply as Hallertauer Tradition even if it was grown in the Hallertau.
