giving thanks with homegrown hops

by Donavan

Mike and I just kegged the batch of beer we brewed with our homegrown hops. Mike has an established crop of German-style hops. This is my first harvest of Santiam hops that are slowly taking over my back yard. A quick tasting proved that the beer was tasty. The keg is now carbonated and conditioning. I’ll put it on at the Angler when the hefe kicks (which should be soon).

    The Hefe was very good. I would like to re-create that in a heavier and higher abv version. I am sure that the Rocky Point Artisan Brewery and its Community Relations Board can help with that process in the Spring…cheers!
