To dmtaylo2: That’s the boring details I was talking about, except my ancestors came from Kent and Sussex Co. England. They settled in Sussex in 1836 and brought hops with them from Oneida NY after thay had worked off their indentured servitude obligations. Hops was the first cash crop they grew here, and “Weaver Bros. Hops Brokers and dealers” was viable in Sussex until 1896.
My children are 9th generation to live on land that my family homesteaded in 1840. Like I said it’s a quest.[/quote]
Actually, a very interesting story. How many people can say their beer is brewed with heritage, family heirloom hops? Go for it!
