Starting to grow Hops

[Mikey5]

Hi guys.

I would like to start growing Hops in my back yard. I am renting a house now so I finally have lots of space in my back yard. I was on northernbrewer.com and they had a number of hop rhizome options.

I wanted to ask you guys what 6 hops you would grow?

www.nikobrew.com, just sayin.

We're closing on a house pretty soon, so I think I'm going to start a few myself. Personally I'm going to stick with one variety since they're all going to end up in the same brew & I like the idea of a single hop with fresh whole cones at the end. I started by considering CTZ, Cascade & Centennial, and finally decided on the CTZ's.

That would depend on where you are and what beers you tend to brew.

I ordered cascade and magnum from NB! I'm itching for them to arrive! Can't wait to brew a harvest ale

DAMN YOU!!! NBs magnum is sold out. But thanks for the reminder that Magnum is one that I want to add or replace in my garden.

EDIT: Found them at Adventures in Homebrewing!

Haha! If it's makes it any better I only ordered 2 magnums... I'm glad you were able to find them!

Unfortunately I also needed some StarSan and water treatments which wasn't available.
