Located between Munich and Nuremberg, Hallertau is the world`s largest contiguous hop growing area. Close to one of every two beers worldwide is brewed with one of the more than 20 Hallertau hop varieties. The film shows how the growers` work and knowledge and the interaction between research, production technology expertise, and quality awareness make Hallertau hops the most valuable raw material for the world`s best beers. The film takes you on a tour along the entire hop value chain, from the hop garden to the state-of-the-art hop processing plants, to the brewer, presenting a picture of how very efficient the Bavarian hop industry is. The film provides impressive evidence of why breweries on all continents rely on Hallertau hops - now and in the future.
