My hops are about a foot tall ... I am the QUEEN of hop-heads!
If you can't measure it in IBU's... I aint drinking it!
Hell Yes Angel!
The IPA I have brewing now will be around 90!
Got the answer on the altitude, it is not altitude, but rather the first 7 or 8 feet that don't produce.

Nobody likes Saaz or Tettnanger.
I like wheat in summer...Ice cold with a head you can eat with a spoon.
Creamy and thirst quenching.
Something about Saaz hops you can't get from some other hops.That spicey nose I guess.
Smells so good in the boil.
I lean towards Bock and the heavy aged darks for winter.
A little Chocolate malt never hurt a strong winter brew.
A nice nose,a little sweet until the hops kicks in,a nice mellow habanero chocolate malt taste blend and burn that sneaks up on you when swallowed and a high test kick from a goat after a couple 22oz. bottles.
(the above brew aged 1 1/2 years to get mellowed out to the excellent brew it turned out to be.
Used a Bock yeast for pimary fermentation then added a high alcahol cold tollorant yeast at bottling.)
Was a great winter brew.
Well worth the wait.Wished I'd made more than 15 gal. once it aged...
I bet you could have used it instead of kalouha in a sissy milk drink.
Was great to cook with.
Not a barleywine or bock.Something inbetween.

I like a nice balanced DIPA like DFH 90 minute.

I'm going to be dowing a bunch of those this summer. the hop bug has officially bitten me.
About time!
Stone ruination IPA is good, but not worth it to me. I'll drink the Dead Guy for EVER....
My 2nd year Cascade is 12 feet tall............
My first year Hallertaur are 1.5 ft tall....
Everything else is somewhere in between.
I WILL get Pics.
That brew sounds awesome smokemaster!

My Sunbeam is about 7 feet tall and my other one is about 3 feet tall. I'm posting pics tomarrow night.
My last couple raids of the brew supply shop were for cheap, random brew supplies.
2 batches later, I have enough malt for a respectable brew, and......SAAZ!!!!!! lol.
Thought you'd like that smokey.
Are sunbeam hops useable? Sorry, I thought that they were purely ornamental. Not so?

They are ornemental but usable....for Saaz subsatustions.
For SAAZ substations? Interesting!!
We have some saaz subcastration fans on this thread!

Going outside slows any plant down, for a few days or so.

Here they were, dismantling the majestic, but tragically storm damaged beauty of a tree that would have

Is that date accurate?
no, lol. I didn't bother to program it. Guess I should figure out how NOT to display the date though.
That cascade will hit the roof next week, I need to figure out how to give it more room!
BYO suggests feeding out more line so that it droops, but keeps getting longer.

Have it follow the roof line.

That is a thought, but there is a pic of a bine lying on the gound and still growing and producing. I think I will pay out a bunch of line and see how that goes.
