Best Answer

Hops are not a grain. Hops are vines, a perennial; the part that is used to flavor beer is called a 'berry' although it resembles a small, soft-leaved, green pine cone. The berry itself is usually no bigger than a human thumb. Washington state produces most of the hops in the United States, although Oregon and Idaho also produce fair amounts.
