Happy Hop Harvest

Octoberfest in Munich is “o’zapft”. While Munich and its guests are already enjoying the beer… we are making sure to have the right ingredients for our future beer: bio hops from our garden 😁

The weather is beautiful. The hops are “crunchy”, and that means ready for harvest. Hubby in his element: 

Hops like growing here! Again a very good harvest 🍻
Different shape, different sort.
Hand picked

Later, hops will be dried, vacuumed & frozen until ready for use.

Drying

Expect those 300 grams: freshly harvested and made into fresh beer today. 

Brewing in process with fresh hops —> it’s going to be a “Fresh Red Ale” (usually hops are dried and frozen to keep them good). 

Anybody interested in tasting? Be patient… ready in about 3 weeks… 🍻

Cheers!
