    I've been drinking beers with American hops for a long stretch and getting a little too accustomed to those flavors.

    Can anyone list a few commericial examples that focus on Hallertau Mittelfrüh hops other than the obvious beers that specifically write this on the bottle?

    The lower abv% and the higher the overall rating, the better. I'm located in the Mid-Atlantic USA.

    I'm not sure if Weihenstephaner Original uses HT Mittelfrüh or Hersbrucker (or another variant), but it may fit the bill. Bros gave it a perfect score...and I, too, consider it world-class FWIW.

    I assume the obvious beer your refer to is SABL, but I'll just throw that one out there for those reading along.

    Next one that comes to mind is Troegs Sunshine Pils. It's seasonal, but should be released soon. Keep an eye out for it, just a wonderful Pils.

    Are you also looking for other continental noble hops, or just that one?
