Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Wild hops
This hop plant has been growing on our fence for several years, mixed with other climbers. I didn't plant it so I assume that it is self seeded. I have never made beer from scratch so I haven't experimented to see whether these hops would give a good flavour.

Sadly wild hops is not the same as the Hops used in brewing. The hops used in brewing is very domesticated. I wish it wasn't so, as it's bloody expensive importing hops from New Zealand.
