... tall growing and vigerous hops plant = happy hops plant = good hops... it's a plant with a man's ego...

So I read that mass produced american beers are weaker because during WWII things were a bit harder to come by and women were the main drinkers of beer.  The boys came back, and thing never changed.  Any truth to that?

I finished my lauter tun.  I have added a perforated copper coil into the roof of the tun to sprinkle water in for both vorloft and sparging.
