  • Hops, Humulus Lupulus, Are Fast-Growing, Herbaceous Perennial Vines That Can Grow from the Ground to 25’ in the Span of One Season
    Hops, Humulus lupulus, are fast-growing, herbaceous perennial vines that can grow from the ground to 25’ in the span of one season. They provide a fast seasonal screen and decorative flowers. In addition to these qualities, hops flowers are an ingredient in the beer brewing process. The alpha-acid content provides bitterness to beer, and the natural antibiotics lupulon and humulon keep bacteria from growing during brewing. Provide strong support & ample space, rich soil & full sun; vines die back to the ground in winter, so plan on annual cleanup. USDA zones 4-8. CASCADE Alpha acid 4-7%. Excellent taste which adds a powerful aroma. Elongated cone structure, high yielding. Matures mid-season. Used in Pale Ales, IPAs and Lager. Resistant to downy mildew. Developed at OSU. CENTENNIAL Alpha acid 9 - 11%. This hop has a pungent, citrus flavor and aroma, but is less floral than Cascade. Perfect for Ales and IPAs. CHINOOK Alpha acid 11-13%. High bittering cultivar boasts alluring woodsy aroma with undertones of spice and citrus. Suitable for most beers: Pale Ale to Lager. COLUMBUS Alpha acid 14-17%. Highly bittering with sharp herbal notes, prized for high oil content. Great multipurpose hop suitable for IPAs, Pale Ales, Stout, and Lager. CRYSTAL Alpha acid 3-5%. Delicate blend of spices and flowers with low bittering value. Perfect for German-style Pilsner, Lager, Kölsch, ESB, and Belgian Ales. GOLDING Alpha Acids 4-6%, Beta Acids 2-3%. Refined older English variety with flowery tones that has produced some of England’s best bitters. MAGNUM Alpha acid 10-12%.

  • A Bitter Past: Hop Farming in Nineteenth-Century Vermont
    A Bitter Past: Hop Farming in Nineteenth-Century Vermont The history of hops in Vermont is not only a history of an agricultural crop, but also a cross section of social and cultural history. BY Adam Krakowski think I have asserted heretofore, there were more hops raised in I the town of Hydepark than the rest of the county. Hops had been so profitable for a few years, that many new yards were planted in the spring of 1851, which would produce a crop the present fall, which has been very abundant, and the hops well cured; the prices have ranged 16 to 18.5 cents per pound. The quantity raised is over eighty-three tons; the amount of money from the raising of hops brought into our town is over twenty- eight thousand dollars. Many more are commencing the business, and the probability is, that in a short time the price will be reduced to six cents per pound, as has been the case here once before, when all but a few threw up the business. Ariel Hunton Hyde Park, Vermont Nov. 20, 18521 he current craft brewing movement has seen a successful rise in the last two decades, leading to the start of numerous artisan breweries throughout the United States. In the case of Vermont, nearly all the raw materials for their operation are imported into the state. Just over a hundred years ago, the opposite was true. Halfway through the nineteenth century Vermont was the second largest pro- . Adam Krakowski is a decorative arts conservator in Quechee, Vermont.

  • India Pale Ales
    India Pale Ales In the early eighteenth century as Porters were becoming hugely popular in England, the British East India Company was establishing large colonies of merchants, tradesmen and British soldiers in India. And while England was busy building an empire on which the sun never set, demand for British beer was building in India. The sea voyage to India took ships to the south Atlantic, around the horn of Africa and finally to India on a journey that would typically last about six months. The changing temperatures and rolling seas wreaked havoc with the beer and the Porters typically arrived sour, stale and flat. The Royal Navy was eager to solve this problem and provide fresh, tasty beer for British soldiers and sailors, so they put the challenge in the 1780's to British brewers of the day to brew a beer that would last through the voyage to India. George Hodgson of the Bow Brewery in London surmised correctly that higher hop and alcohol levels would help to preserve his own Pale Ale through the difficult sea conditions, so he brewed a high hopped, high alcohol version of it that did the job, eventually earning the name India Pale Ale, or IPA for short. Hodgson's beer arrived in quite pleasant condition in India and soon other brewers like Bass followed suit, creating their own IPAs and the beer market in India exploded. Click here to read Hop Union's "Introduction to Hops." As Hodgson brewed his beer well over 200 years ago, we cannot be completely certain what it tasted like, but it seems clear that his export version of an IPA was extremely bitter and very high in alcohol.
