    Found Wild Hops, Now What? [pics]

    Let's keep the zombie thread going! Here's what I did with wild Neomexicanus hops I found growing in northern NM. Fresh hop camping brew, cooled in the river and US-05 pitched that afternoon.

    Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer Mugwort Anti-Imperial Stout

    When I made my gruit a few years ago, I ended up carbonating it higher than intended, probably 3.5 vol or so. It was really enjoyable with the high carbonation.

    Albuquerque Brews?

    La Cumbre is phenomenal. Jeff is an excellent brewer and fun to chat with when you can catch him. Marble is always good. Marble Red Ale is one of my top five favorite beers and it's best when fresh from the tap at the brewery. Bosque is another great choice. Boxing Bear would round out my...

    Has anyone grown Neomexicana hops?

    Those are looking good. Thanks for the tip on the epsom salt. That may explain some of the issues my hops have been having.

    Has anyone grown Neomexicana hops?

    Haha, my hand is not all that small. That leaf was huge! The cones I picked were a nice size too. And there were some seeds laying around after I dried the cones. :)

    Has anyone grown Neomexicana hops?

    Went camping along the Rio de Los Pinos in northern NM and got a good haul of wild hops. I imagine these are Neomexicanus as well since they are just growing along the river and there is no indication of intentional hop plants in the area. To me the fresh cones have a mix of lemon and pine scent.

    Has anyone grown Neomexicana hops?

    I ran up to Placitas to see how the wild ones were doing. They're doing a lot better than mine!

    Has anyone grown Neomexicana hops?

    Mine are doing great too. I have the plucked-from-Placitas Neomexicanus in one pot and it is doing way better than my Cascade, Columbus, Centennial, and Mt. Hood plants. I guess it makes sense that the one from a few miles away is growing better than the ones from the Washington/Oregon...
