Just been out with the dog and discovered these, I'm pretty sure there hop vines but thought I would just check with some experts.

they sure look hoppy

remember where they are and return at the end of the season to crop some. being wild they are an unknown quantity

so you may have a great new find or you may not, if they work, you only need to dig up a few inches off root rhyzome to grow a clone at home

Just hope no one else has there eyes on them, I've walked past them for years but until I started brewing just over 12 months ago i just had no idea, I won't get past my self so if I do harvest them I'll be back for a recipe

make a hop tea with a handful of dried hops, i found a few hop bines where i live, two had no bitterness and aroma, the other a beauty nice and bitter, woody, floral aroma!

That's amazing! Is this in the UK or the states?
