I have heard that some lambic recipes call for aged hops. perhaps this what they refered to?

So I used them, and 17 days later I'm drinking a very tasty pale ale. Very subtle character from the hops, but good and without off flavors nonetheless. Very pleased.

Thanks for the update on your experiment using the dehydrated-on-the-vine hops. Just to clarify, the brown bag on the left in the picture are the ones we're talknig about, right? How did you use them? Did you put them in the boil? For bittering (15 minutes to an hour) or aroma (5 minutes to flame out)?

Originally it was said that they were going to be used for dry hopping. Is that what you ended up doing? Anyways, congratulations and I'm glad it worked out!

Bag on right was for 60 mins in the boil for bittering. The bag on the left I used at 2 minutes to flame out. I thought those might not be the best for the inaugural whole leaf dry hopping in my home brewery.
