I hate throwing stuff in the trash.
An acquaintance gave me a bunch of whole leaf hops - still sealed in the original oxygen-barrier bags. He was cleaning out his refrigerator (kinda like a lawyer does during discovery). The good side is that they're all two years old, but at least they've been refrigerated all this time. The bad side is there's 10oz of Willamette, 4 oz of Cascade, and 2oz of Northern Brewer.
So I'd like you to vote on what I should do with them.
Candidate A - Throw them all in the boil kettle and call the batch "Who's Hoppy Now?"
Candidate B - Use them for dry hops. They're basically dead, so you won't taste any difference, but it might make you feel better....
Candidate C - Oh, get real - throw them in the trash.
Thank you for your support,
Candidate D: Dave Hennessey
