With limited space and funding for a trellis, it can be built.

Very cool. Personally I just used a few 2x4s, pressure treated, with a couple joist hangers, built into an a-frame style (kinda like those old kiddie swing sets)
I don't think it cost more than $40 or so, plus an hour or 2 of time to get it built and upright.

This was the first time I jacked it up this high..We hadn't used the clothesline for a couple of years so I figured it was a good place to plant a few years ago.
The wife has no issues only when the beer runs out...
Still have some beer brewed from last year in kegs....45 gallons produced last year.
Picked 2 5 gallon buckets last September of Cascade...and yes, I still have some of that too.
