Default Re: Hops in Beer and Estrogen levels

....and here I was looking forward to growing hops...

But wait a minute. I'm 41, enjoy hoppy beer, and if I've noticed a decrease in libido over the years I've been glad for it -- not that it's anywhere near the level of a 'problem', mind you.

Maybe the trick is to put young men in their teens and twenties to work in the hop fields, and in the hop, er, hoppers at the brewery.

And keep them unaware of the effects of hops? Certainly not. Everyone should be aware, and maybe women could bring their men some India Pale Ale as a hint that they will not be in the mood for that certain kind of attention...


I have a friend who is a self-certified 'hophead'. Wait 'til he hears about this...
