Hops has different flavor characteristics at different points in the year dude. Rain fall, temperature, humidity all play a role in how hops taste at different points in the year.

Fair enough, I don't study beer that deep

Do most beers vary in taste, look, etc?
It's a serious question. I've never noticed that, but maybe I have not been paying attention.

Fair enough. But that's a pretty drastic change when it seemed they had locked in something that was working for them. Maybe they didn't have any choice in the matter though.

I didn't have it, but I thought people said opus 2.0 tasted eerily similar to ghost. The more likely explanation is that they tinkered with the recipe to try and differentiate the two beers.

Hops are harvested all at once and then packaged. Most are turned into pellets, which further homogenizes them. Sure, there's a certain terroir to hops that affects a few things from year to year (like Amarillo a few years back), but for the most part they are just like most modern agricultural products in that they are bred for consistency.

Ruth's Chris can charge a premium because they deliver a superior product that is consistent.
If you're gonna charge $72 for a case straight from the manufacturer, you better give your customers what they're expecting, not a case of low-rent Andygator
