Hops and the cellar

I apologize for the delay in updates, I have been busy with planning and brewing some new recipes. Below you will find the current cellar list.
Cellar:  Saison with Brettanomyces, Cherry Saison, Hop Yard Saison (standard), Dry Irish Stout, Bohemian Pilsner, Belgian Golden Strong,Wild Golden Ale (wild/natural fermentation).

Hops Update:  The hopyard is doing well this year, some of the mature plants have nice cones that should be ready for the first picking soon. The new varieties have grown up tall and should produce some nice cones next season.  One pest, the Japanese beetle has proven challenging.  Bag-a Bug traps around the perimeter seem to have reduced their population to some degree..
Should have some harvest updates soon.  Thank you for reading!
