A beer store near my job has a whole case of ‘hoppy’ beer. To me, it is nirvana.

LOL, I don’t think my boss would appreciate me drinking at work! Actually I did like your original pun.

My boss made me feel left out if I didn’t drink at work. Mostly on Thursday and or Friday after 3pm...ok 2 pm...well sometimes 12 pm. We do not work with power tools or machinery if that makes a difference.

Glad someone picked up the slack. Bud’s stockholders were in shock there for a while.

If I could just decide what to grow.
Cascades, I think, that way I have Stouts and IPAs covered, but I am unsure what else.
I tend to brew a lot of Pils, Lagers and Mexican, so Saaz perhaps?
And if I grow two, well three is just as easy.
And so it begins...

Unless you have a large space, they all grow together in a tangled mass anyways.

I’d call that a larger space. If you can plant the rhizomes 18-24 inches apart you’d be OK with different varieties.
