Glacier hops have made quite a comeback after I weed whacked them to the ground on the 1st.

New zine! Not about beans!
This one has my recipe for an herbal pain-relief salve with hops, the one I use for endo and ovarian cyst pain. You could also use the instructions to make other salves with different herbs. As always, wishing ease and rest to everyone in pain today 🌱

I got a hop plant🤩
Not exactly sure what I will do with it yet, but a friend gave it to us, so I will figure something out 🤔
Since I won’t be brewing anytime soon, I will look into other options beyond hop tempura🤔 -
I’m doing a disinfection boil on my brew system in preparation for the brew day. Hopefully my brother will visit and help out with the brewing. Today’s brew will be a smash lager with Swedish malt and a recently rediscovered Swedish hop variety.
It won’t be a regular lager, but I’m hoping it will be tasty at least.

1.4kg wet Perle hops becomes 315g dried. Vacuum packed and going into the freezer. Destined for Helles, a Dortmunder Export and maybe a Scwharzbier and/or a Rauchbier.

Harvested my hops this weekend. Gladly got nearly a bucket full out of it again, after the plants needed some recovery from the neighbour spraying weed killer along the fence line a couple of years ago. My 'Fuggle' (the variety) smells wonderful!
Should have harvested a week earlier, though ...

1.4kg of Perle hops. Drying these is more of a challenge. I really need to make some screened frames.

So usually herbal salves are a cream / beeswax colour, but these Hüll-Melon hops make everything suuuuuuper green. This is only 1/5 hops oil!

Big day, big day! I decanted my #hops extracts. Five varieties infused in oil, since I know I like how the oil works medicinally, and one alcohol tincture just to try. They smell *fantastic*

More hops-posting... I found one (1) herbalist who tried hops topically for general pain and found instant relief. Soothing muscle cramps (including menstrual cramps) is a fairly common use and why I was experimenting with hops in the first place, but I am surprised to not find more discussion about nerve pain, tendonitis, joint pain, etc. Much like this person, so far I have found it works on a lot of things. Neat.

My #hops came! O frabjous day!

Question for #homebrewing and #hops nerds: what are your personal picks for best-smelling hops? I have a new love for using them in medicinal oils and I really don't know varieties

I take multiple, heavy-duty prescription painkillers (I've been on medical leave due to endometriosis pain for several months) so I didn't have big expectations that an herbal salve would make a noticeable difference for me.
And yet! I do notice instant pain relief when I use this hops blend topically.
-
I've been playing around with some oil I infused with hops, to try out the analgesic effects. The smell overlaps noticeably with valerian root so I went looking to see if the two plants have active ingredients in common

Codename : Scottish Bardic Alethorpe (2025)
Largely due to bad planning, and other factors, this batch is being brewed just ahead of St. Andrew’s Day, and will be enjoyed for Robbie Burns Day. In an older tradition, it is known as an 80 shilling ale, but more modernly known as a Scottish Export. A shoutout to The Apartment Brewer, I recently saw his video, and was inspired to emulate his […]

A window and a rose for #FensterFreitag #WindowFriday.
This is #RoyalSunset #ClimbingRose against a large window that reflects the sky. A #Hops bine is the acid green foliage on the right.

#ClimbingRose #RoyalSunset is just starting to bloom by the back porch window. #Hops bines are already shooting past the top of their double tomato cage trellis.

Codename : Westfort IIPA
Having cycled through a series of other India Pale Ale styles, it was time to double down, and try a double IPA. A little about the the style,
Strongly hopped, but clean, dry, and lacking harshness. Drinkability is an important characteristic; this should not be a heavy, sipping […] -
Codename : Westfort Fog Alethorpe
A previous fog brew turned out with good success, so I am trying another variation with an American Pale Ale (APA). Along with the mash in of grain, steep in Earl Grey tea, then during the boil introduce lactose to emulate a London Fog tea. To use up base malts, I combined pilsner and Golden Promise, thereby... -

The start of hoppy beer #brewing in England is an interesting question. It was brought in as finished beer through #Hanseatic depots like Hull and London as early as the 1200s but when did local brewing develop? The early 1500s is often cited but I've shared a record of hops coming to the trading port of #Bristol in 1480. Turns out immigrant brewers made #beer with #hops there over 30 years before. From the archives (2019): "http://abetterbeerblog427.com/2019/01/19/beer-and-trans-atlantic-english-explorations-of-the-late-1400s/" #BeerHistory
