it is currently fresh hop season in the pacific nw. a large number of breweries (and homebrewers, I have a fresh hop saison finishing right now) pick the fresh hops off of the bine and brew with them, imparting the magic of a beer you'll only get to taste once per year if you happen to be in the right place at the right time.
- jofer 2y agoI finally live somewhere where it's possible to grow hops (albeit it not ideal), and I _really_ want to experience brewing with hops straight off the vine! I've always been jealous of y'all in the Pacific NW in that regard (hard to beat it as a beer region). Fresh hops are amazing.
- jerrysievert 2y agojust remember, use about 5x as much by weight due to them being "wet", and you should be fine from there!
