@khannon I live near Family Business and would happy to pick you up some of their beer (I have never heard of nocking point and if they aren't in the greater Austin, TX area I do not have access to them). Family business does not currently package anything but do sell growlers. I believe they...

Thank you for setting something up. I no longer live in the area but wish you all the best

Mine are in 2'L x 2'W x 1'H with an open bottom and are plenty big. Hops are happy and healthy. I have some pictures up on instagram @createjake

Glad to hear I'm not the only one! I'm going to try the fresh hop in my cheek while drinking an IPA idea.

Now that sounds painful. I'll have to work my way up to one of those. "Nurse! Just put it in my iv! I bleed lupulin!!!"

While I appreciate the offer I have plenty of my own hops to enjoy. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one curious enough to have a taste

I'm being serious. The first year I wasn't tempted but this year I was wondering if I could taste the difference between the two different varieties. It definitely burns your taste buds a bit for an hour or so. I'll do a cascade on one side for a bit then do a willow creek on the other side of...

So I've been growing hop bines for two years now and I just love picking a fresh hop and sucking on it for about a half hour. Anyone else try it? Intensely bitter but you notice the flavor differences in each variety.

I wonder who bought them

Are your hops all dead? You might be able to salvage a first year harvest from them if they are still alive and just struggling. Last year my hops continued to produce into November. If your hops aren't dead it might still be worth it to try and coax them along this year just for the sake of...

I live in central texas, right outside of Austin. I grow cascade, centennial, Chinook, crystal, williamete, amalia, medusa, neo1, and willow creek. I put them on drip irrigation to get them through the summer. So far the best performing have been cascade and willow creek with a close second...

I get very similar catepillars in Texas. BT works great, clears the problem right up.

I grow basil as a cover crop, my family loves pesto and other basil dishes. I have no scientific data to show basil is a good cover crop but the hops don't seem to mind in the slightest. I have also thought about doing cold weather lettuce during the fall/winter (when it is too cold for...

Next one should be called "The Trade of Lost Ales 1" then "The Trade of Lost Ales 2"

I can't participate this round but wanted to chime in that this version clearly should have been called "The SIPmarillian"

PM sent

PM sent to sandyeggoxj. Regarding price of the beer; yellow rose is about $13 a four pack so pretty similarly priced per unit ($13/4=$3.25) vs hopslam ($20/6=$3.33). Happy to send a six pack of yellow rose to someone.

I can snag you some yellow rose if you are interested. Want to do a six pack for a six pack?

Sipping on nickbtags winter warmer. Seriously good. Thanks man!

@nickbtag hooked me up We also had the first casualty in this book, I mean, war, I mean beer trade. Apparently FedEx took issue to Get Bent IPA, ha! Nothing ventured nothing gained, the break wasn't nickbtags fault, his packaging was excellent; to the point of 12 oz of beer leaking and...
