What an interesting site LL, many thanks!
Afraid I'm getting fed up with the woman and her coyness, I don,t even like the damned brew!

Has she said it was on the list ?. Im tempted to plump for Green Bullet from New Zealand used it on 5 or 6 brews now with some excellent results .

Has she said it was on the list ?

When I showed her the list, she said, I'm not telling you!
Make what you will of that, I've given up, she can stuff her hops and her beer! :evil:

woodfordes wherry on draught has a strong grapefruit aroma/taste ... any ideas which they use ? ..... anyone can claim anything without proof .... maybe shes just throwing u off the track claiming ' only uk brewer ' ?

I know Rob, I think she is being very paranoid and silly.
She says that Goldings and Fuggles are just boring, run of the mill hops.
Didn't stop her asking for Rhyzomes when she found out I grew them!!!

trade hops for info lol :rofl:

My money would be on Cascade. I did a pale brew with a bit of honey in it, very very citrusy

Did consider it for 1/2 a microsecond, but then realised I had totally lost interest.
I don't even like the beer!
Stupid name as well!

You know what else tastes like grapefruit?

Grapefruit. Have you asked if that's what they use? :rofl:

With respect to the comments made with reference to the hops in which i use in some or relevant beers i would just like to correct the information posted
often things may be taken out of context or misinterpreted and if i have misinformed any one with reference to the above i apologise, it is to my understanding that the hopes i use in one of my beers is not widely used and until i am 100% happy with the end result do not want to confirm the variety used as this may change or may need to be blended.

Happy Drinking

After four months I don't think anybody is really in the slightest bit interested in what hops they were anyway

 

[evanvine]

I get the impression that I am now probably barred from the "Pin"!

Their loss EV.

I'm just wondering why that in todays society a back street boozer can feel threatened by a mature homebrewer. With the closure of so many pubs every week, you would have thought that your custom was desperately needed.


It just goes to show that brewing, whether it be AG or from kits, is a great hobby.

Shame on these people.

Head up high mate and have a few from me :drink: :drink:
