this is 1 of our 3 buildings (1/2 full) at only 1 of our facilities. our plant in washington has warehouses up into the teens.

each warehouse holds approx. 8000 bales.

breakdown of a hop bale (industry average)


One bale of hops = 200 pounds

brewing ratio per barrel = 0.165 pounds (31 gallons)

One Bale = 1,212.1 Barrels
2,424.2 Kegs
16,705.6 Cases
33,411.1 1/2 Cases
66,822.2 6 Packs
400,933.3 12 oz. Bottles

To drink 1 bale of hops:

one barrel per day = 3.3 years
one keg per day = 6.6 years
one case per day = 45.8 years
one 12 pack/day = 91.5 years
one 6 pack / day = 183.1 years
one 12 oz. bottle = 1,098.4 years


average of 50,000 bales produced in oregon yearly = 20,046,666,666.7 12.oz Bottles

some how this one got inducted into the OOA. i didnt even know we had a "forklift division"

I dunno i've known a few people that could probably do a bale or two in their lifetime.
I could probably eat it like cereal and get one or two done. shoes should do that, like a challenge burger and if they finish it it's free.

LOL

STEP RIGHT UP! WHO CAN EAT THIS BALE OF HOPS!

[Old Coote]

HAHAHAHA,

I think one can eat hops for breakfast, love, dinner, and all snacks every day for several months before finishing a 200lb bale of hops. And can shoes say EEEEWW, one would sure be sick of hops after that.

[Wing Nut]

no kidding.

i get sick of it WITHOUT eating it!

[Big Nasty]
