My current and previous houses both had clay soil. That must be why my hops grew like weeds.

No particular strategy involved in the past however this plant seems to have produced loads of initial shoots.

Need to select some shoots now out of this lot.

Mine are out(2nd year) and I’m in the north of scotland

Are you brewing up a recipe for a beer you've never tried? It certainly doesn't look like a hazy beer in the pictures.

Same here only mine was made October 2021. Its enjoyable enough but the citrus flavour doesn't suit it.

I've done that in the past and it worked well.

Bairds are 15 mins down the road from me (although I think this factory tends to do malt for whisky) I've yet to work out if a punter can rock up and grab a sack (unlikely)

Welcome. I’m from Forres too but live across the border in Highland now.

Work gave us 50quid for xmas in an internal system that you can exchange for stuff. I blew it (plus 10quid they gave my team a few months ago) on tesco vouchers. On the smokehead just now.

Only the north of Scotland really Most iv postcodes… but only certain couriers.

Ah, just spotted you’ve found it as well.

I made up one of these a few months ago and just got round to trying the keg. Got to say its pretty good. Mines a good bit stronger as I only made it up to 19l to fit in a corny.
