Harvest Time

I have started the Hops harvest. They were ready and I managed to find a little time on Sunday in between Biking and Fairing.

I'm only going to save the Sterling Hops, as that is a variety I can use in my home brewing. The Hallertau shall go to the birds, worms, or whatever wishes to chew on them.

They have done their job for the year and provided great vining foliage for the arbors on the deck. The fact that I get usable hops out of it is purly foam on the beer.

Next, I'm going to pick the few bunches of grapes we have and blend them into a small amount of juice to try to make wine from.
