If you are the one harvesting the hops, what do you do with the? 🙂
Sorry, I meant to say …do with them?
I think these hops will be making their way into some of #1 Son’s home-made beer. They are spread out on a bedroom floor at the moment – drying. We don’t have all that many yet. But I understand hops can be an ingredient in tea. Last year we bought some “hop pepper” from a local craft brewer/hop grower. It’s a mix of black pepper and ground, dried hops….. And is very nice.
Oh now that is interesting. You have a personal connection to some good craft beer and the hop pepper sounds really cool. 🙂 We have a local brewery, Red Hook, that grows hops all around their outside seating area as a display. I love learning something new. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers!! 😀
Such a delicate and dainty plant! Gorgeous moss green color…They’re used to make beer?
I agree, Lia. They are very pretty. And they have a nice fresh, almost citrusy scent. I have seen them in “olde” English pubs, decorating the ceiling beams. This batch will go into some homemade beer as a flavouring. Cheers!! 🙂
Oh sounds lovely!! Enjoy!!
