By "regulated", does that mean it's illegal for any ol' [American] consumer to buy, own, and grow hop? What does it take? How is the fruit and is it safe? [[User:Lysdexia|lysdexia]] 23:47, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC) |

:I don't believe that it is regulated. I have easily purchased hop rhizomes from my brewery supply shop in California. A friend purchased it via mail. Grafting marijuana onto the ''roots'' of hops will not disguise the marijuana. Grafting hops onto marijuana roots will produce hops, not marijuana, so the disguise is useless. Unless someone can provide a reference for some area where growing hops is regulated, I will remove the paragraph.[[User:Nereocystis|Nereocystis]] 23:51, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC) |

The "Harvest" section was ripped off from The Mirror (source [http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/1/1/3/2/11321/11321-h/11321-h.htm Project Gutenberg]). This is not a copyright problem as this issue was August 25, 1827 so it is public domain, however all the same it should be cited. Also that whole section is quaint and rather dated, as hops hasn't been picked by "women and children" for quite some time, etc. [[User:NTK|NTK]] 04:36, 4 Jan 2005 (UTC) |

Noble or Aromatic?
Fuggles and Goldings are certainly aromatic hops, but I would not have called them noble hops. Am I wrong in thinking that term applies largely to the classic continental varieties like Saaz and Hallertauer? BrendanH 14:33, Apr 8, 2004 (UTC)
- I believe that I abstracted that list from the 'Brew Chem 101' book. My guess is they used some sort of humulene to cohumulone ratio to make the cut. This might not match the selection process others would use. I'm personally no expert in this, so I have no objection if you change the list to reflect your knowledge of noble hops. Thanks.
