Re: Let's talk good beer

Fresh Hop, Wet Hop, What’s the Difference? – Washington Beer Blog

I had never looked it up before, but yeah seems like it's essentially the same thing (learn something new every day and all). They describe their "wet" hop process on the Born Again Yesterday page: https://lagunitas.com/beers/bornagainyesterday. Seems like they figured out how to "preserve" some of the hops they get for Born Yesterday (maybe quick freeze?) and use the same process on them 6 months later for Born Again? Who knows...all I know is both beers are ridiculously good.

Grabbed a mixed 6er of stouts yesterday at my local shop, and found they had both Burley Oak Bilsner and Homegrown. So I'm happy about that...both are great beers to crush during a session and are cheaper than Secret Sauce and Sorry Chicky (which is by far my favorite Burley beer). Yeah, Secret Sauce was always a bit off for me. It's a decent beer, but wouldn't be my first reach for a MD IPA.

I like Mad Elf ok. I can't have a 6er of it, so I'll grab a pint while I'm out. Definitely a different bird.
