Last week I pick a whole bunch of hops (3 paper shopping bags) from a friend's hop bine. Beautiful plant with TONS of flowers, problem is, I have NO idea what they are! He had them as an ornamental vine and had originally recieved the rhizome from a homebrewer. I'm guessing they're Willamette. They've dried out perfectly and are ready to go into a wort.
So any recommendations on trying to figure out what variety this is?
Oh yeah...as an aside....he no longer talks to the homebrewer....so he won't call him to ask!
BTW I've got a bunch of Marris Otter, Torrified Wheat and Crystal 40. So it'll end up as some sort of English IPA.
