Consider calling a local craft brewery and see if they would like to use your hops to experiment with a wet hop cask or use them for something else. You never know, they might give you some interesting strain of yeast in return.
Hi there Johnnyspade, I'm home visiting folks in Halifax and visiting friends in CB too. I remembered your post and was hoping to pickup some of the EZ cap bottles (swing tops) at the price you mentioned. Where did you buy yours?
