My guess is that a tasty beer is far preferable to an early one, so breweries weight accordingly--but who knows? <br /><br />On the other hand, the Magnums were being harvested really early on, and no one used those, so at least SOME thought to type makes the equation.<br /><br />Derek, I'm colorblind, and so I default to a palate I know everyone can Jeff Alworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02930119177544342495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-62000531588574216732010-10-07T10:33:48.443-07:002010-10-07T10:33:48.443-07:00Very nice list!

Just like every other seasonal beer, it seems breweries want to be the first on the market with their fresh hop creations, and using the early harvest varieties like First Gold and Crystal can give you a 7-14 day jump on someone who's waiting on the Chinooks.<br /><br />Just some food for thought Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04670279083285348299noreply@blogger.com
