You guys are confusing this with the SN Chico Estate - that's the homegrown one.

Drinkstore looks to have (from the photo) the Southern Hemisphere, wherein SN actually goes to the trouble of flying fresh hops from New Zealand to California.

I had the Harvest Wet Hop (the 3rd in the series) back in February and it was pretty darn tasty, so if this is at all similar, it should be special.

Yes it's the Sothern Hemisphere Harvest - I picked up a couple of bottles today so I'll report back.
