This is the first year that my hubby’s hops have produced cones, so we are pretty excited. We moved to a new house earlier this year, and the hops came with us. I think they LOVE their new location, because this is the first year (in 5 years!) that we actually have hops to harvest.
He has three different varieties (though, I couldn’t tell you what they are), and Harrison has already used some of his bounty to brew a batch of beer. I feel badly that he hasn’t had time in 6 months to brew, but it was a great weekend to get back into brewing. The sky was a beautiful, bright, blue and there was not a cloud in the sky. He recruited our 5 year old to help pluck cones off the plants, AND she helped brew too. The family that Brews together…
