I brewed a beer with it, but dry hopped way too long and it tasted like grass. I'm brewing again soon and I'll send you something from that batch.
i'm not good at putting this stuff in words but i can't see myself with anyone else except maybe urbanhack.

ugh... I was kinda hoping that my hops had died. Nope, I got about 20 shoots right now. I guess I am going to have to take care of them or something.

I have not even watered them once, and they are goring like magic beanstalks. I wonder how they would react to some minor maintenance?
seriously, WTH?
I hate people.

Update: hops at work have broken the surface! I planted them about five weeks ago, and they're up already.
First signs of life from my Columbus the other day. Centennial isn't doing anything, above ground anyways.
I planted two zeus rhizomes on May 5th and they're both doing well. They're at about a foot tall, just reaching the bottom of the trellis now.

Here is some pics of my hop garden. Hoping the weather warms up again to get them growing faster.

How long have you had those posts in the ground? Any signs of them rotting?
I ended up drinking 9 times my body weight in beer, broke three glasses over my head, 7 over others, ordered up 17 hookers for a little afterparty, held a cabbie hostage while running his cab through the Madison capitol doors, and I grabbed gator's ass.
Can we have GT Thursday night pre-preparty at HackDeckTM?
That cow is a selfish lover.
How do you know when it's time to harvest?
Quote from: d0ggnate on June 28, 2011, 11:03:54 PMHow do you know when it's time to harvest?I'm thinking I'm going to go ahead and harvest this weekend. The hops are looking ready (light green, green/yellow) and are papery to the touch. Planning on weighing the harvest and brewing a fresh hop IPA/APA Saturday morning.

Only yielded about half a gallon ziploc of Cascade.
Anyone have some rhizome cuttings they'd like to send me? My cascade are coming up but I don't think my willamette survived my late summer negligence.
You should have seen how wild it looked before I thinned the herd (most of which was intentional )
I just cut back the weaklings
