Urgent: Do these leaf hops look OK to use?

[msa8967]

Buddy gave me 6 oz of locally grown cascade leaf hops in a sealed back. Upon opening the bag I found that some of the cones had a small amount of moisture to them and thus I would like to know if I can still use these for dry hopping and late additions in the boil. I currently have a cold so I cannot smell much of them. My need to add them is in about 75 min from now.

Thanks,

I would not use hops that looked like that. Run to your local brew shop and get some good hops!

Nope.

Yep, wrong color altogether.

[Hello]

Nope. Could me moldy in addition they look like they weren't properly sealed. You can't just put leaf hops in a bag wet to my knowledge.

I've never used leaf hops, but in all the pictures I have seen they were green. Unless your pictures changed the color I would be leery of using those.

I will toss these out and just use pellet hops.

Thanks everyone.
