Episode 86 – Resolving The Secret Of The Hop

1 hour 26 minutes

We've survived the PGPDF and are back and catching back up! We've got a whole slew of feedback, news stories, brew sessions, hop science, micro-resolutions (aka things we think we can do), a listener's brewing experience and… the juicy story of why you can buy Columbus, Tomahawk or Zeus in the hop freezer – sit back for a lesson in farm spying!

Show note – ~34 minutes, Denny says “gypsum, chloride”. He meant “gypsum, calcium chloride”
