The hops were poppin! and some were beginning to dry out and brown, so I thought it might be a good time to brew a wet hopped IPA. I collected 12oz wet hops, some Cascade and some Fuggles (in an unknown proportion), with a tiny bit of some norther brewer likely mixed in. Cascade and Fuggles grew really well, NB grew just a bit (and bore just a few hop cones), but Nugget didn’t seem to thrive AT ALL – need to look into this. Anywho, here’s the beer: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Need to find a different solution here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whirlpool for 30 minutes with the wet hops, added at 185\u00b0, yielded 6<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The hops were poppin! and some were beginning to dry out and brown, so I thought it might be a good time to brew a wet hopped IPA.
