Hop Crisis

A "perfect storm" has caused the price of hops to ski rocket. Many things factor into to making this happen: bad crop yields, increased consumption in other countries, and hop farms going away. It doesn't help that just a few years ago hop prices were so low that there wasn't incentive to keep growing them when growing corn to be used for ethanol production commanded a higher price. The beer that we know and love may go away or may become more expensive to drink.
