Greetings!
We've got some hop rhizomes... Scratch that - we've got a TON of hop rhizomes and the ideal planting season is soon nearing an end. Are you ready for some hops!?
Strange Brew would like to announce the Late Season Hop Rhizome Blow Out Sale! These rhizomes are still in great condition and if you plant them by the end of May, you should have great results! Our hop rhizomes have been professionally selected to provide you with high quality hops - don't be fooled by somewhere else's backyard special, these rhizomes are the real deal! We recommend purchase in pairs of at least 2. All hop rhizome orders will ship for a flat rate of $6.00 via USPS priority mail. Check out what we've got for you this week when we focus our thoughts on warm spring weather and the beautiful Humulus lupulus. Cheers,

5+ ROOTS (mix & match) = $3 each
10+ ROOTS (mix & match) = $2 each
Cascade - Flowery, citrus & spice with some grapefruit (the noticeable fragrance quite often). This medium aroma balances the low bittering value.
Columbus - Earthy, spicy, pungent, with some citrus overtones. Not overwhelmingly citrus.
Fuggle - Classic English aroma hop with moderate bittering value. Mild and pleasant, spicy, soft, woody, with some fruit tones.
Golding - Refined Gentle, Fragrant and pleasant with flowery tones, that has produced some of England's best bitters.
Liberty - Yet another of the Hallertauer triploids, released in 1991. It ranks very close in comparison to Hallertauer Mittlefruh. With very low cohumulone levels, and little farnesene in the essential oil. Liberty is quite similar to Hallertauer but much easier to grow.
Magnum - A late-maturing Hallertauer hybrid developed at the Hop Research Institute in Hüll (Germany) with excellent yield potential, high alpha content, good storage stability and resistance to wilt and Downy Mildew, low tolerance to Powdery Mildew.
Mt Hood - Hybrid of Hallertau with similar mild flower/spice aroma characteristics with a hint more of the forest. Newport - New alpha acid variety with high bittering value released in 2002 that is high-yielding and multi-disease resistant with moderate storage stability. Its large yields and strong resistance to current races of Powdery Mildew in the Pacific Northwest makes it grower-friendly. Northern Brewer - A true dual-purpose hop. Neutral, clean aroma, woody with evergreen and mint overtones. Sorachi Ace - Cross between Brewer's Gold, Saaz - OP and Beikei No. 2 male. Developed in 1984 for Supporo Brewers Ltd. with a unique lemon and dill characteristic. An extremely unique high alpha aroma variety with great bittering characteristics. (Very Limited Supply) Sterling - Herbs and spices dominate, flowers and citrus around the fringes. Tettnang - An aroma variety grown mainly in the Tettnang region of southern Germany with good to moderate vigor, low to medium yield, good resistance to Verticillium Wilt and average resistance to Peronospora. Comparable to the English Fuggle. Willamette - The king of aroma hops in the U.S. with its modest bittering value and the joyous harmony of flowers, fruit, earth and spice. Zeus (Columbus) - Earthy, spicy, pungent, with some citrus overtones. An interesting dichotomy of sharp and herbal.
