using undried fresh hops

[kentish dave]

hi all,
anyone know about using hops 'green' i.e. fresh and not dried at all? I have read that it can give a floral, citrussy taste, but that there is a risk of tasting like grass. any advice much appreciated.

thornbridge brewery produce a 'wet hopped' (dry hopped with fresh hops) beer once a year called halcyon. i beleive this years batch is fermenting as we speak.

It does what it says on the tin(bottle)

 

"Green" hops weigh 5 x heavier than dried hops!
