Have we reached Peak Hops when a brewer—in this case, Fast Fashion in Seattle—makes a beer called Tinned Fish and spices it with a hop called Anchovy?

The newest of the new may not have the impact of last year’s rookies—Talus from the U.S. Northwest, Nectaron from New Zealand, and Eclipse from Australia—but they reflect the ongoing interest in hops with bold, attention-getting aromas and flavors as well as cultivars with better agronomic attributes.
