PHOTO OF THE WEEK, Hops and Beer

Great hop pictures! I worked as office manager for a hop farm here in
Idaho for about 15 years so I'm well aware of what hops are. :-) Even
learned to like the pungent smell of hops when they were harvested. NEVER
learned to like the smell of hop trash (what's left after the cones are
shaken off the vines). In the winter, you did NOT want to follow a truck
that was hauling the hop trash out to spread on the fields.

Most folks know that hops is used in beer but brewers aside, few people
know what it really is or why.
