Hi TB good morning, how are you?

 

Look my hops plant is producing nice sized hops.

I'm going to make a wet hop beer when they are done growing. Probably 5 gallons depending on the harvest, a SMaSH(Single Malt and Single Hops addition) to showcase the fresh hops. Might be good.

I have never seen hops before in my life. My default image in my brain to represent hops was the same as wheat

 

those look like green pine cones

 

can you make beer out of pine cones? or liquor?

 

Sausage and eggs like the old days

You can make a pine needle tea, its quite good with the fresh light green needles but you can use normal colored needles, high in vitamin C also. Pine trees are super useful you can eat the inner bark of the tree, the sap/resin is flammable and can be used as a fire starter, its called Fatwood and has a turpentine like smell, usually flows down the branches and collects at the lower parts of the tree after a branch or tree dies. You can also make a pine pitch glue, its charcoal and pine pitch that has been cooked and mixed, it melts when its hot and hardens when its cooled down. 

 

You can make a spruce tip ale that's made with molasses. Use the fresh spring spruce tips. I have wanted to make this before but spruce trees are a northern tree and don't grown around my area. You can order them but its late in the year now. You can also eat spruce tips fresh, suppose to taste like pine and lemon.

At my old house we have many trees with needles. I thought they were just pine trees, but upon googling, I think they were actually spruce trees or fir trees, I'm not sure which at they look similar. The needles weren't grouped together like google says it is for pine trees
