  @thewobblythong @mutedogbrewing The issue is that some call "fresh hop" beers with only dried hops. They use "wet hop" as a dodge.


Friday September 28, 2012 03:41 PM

  @thewobblythong @mutedogbrewing So I propose to boycott the words "wet hop", so that "fresh hop" means no dried hops. its-pub-night.com/2012/09/fresh-…
