Hops (humulus lupulus) is a climbing perennial plant native to Europe and North America, where it is now widely cultivated. Recorded cultivation of Hops dates back to the middle 8th century. The most popular use of Hops has been in the brewing of beer. Hops provides the characteristic flavor and aroma of beer, as well as provides a natural preservative to the drink. The use of Hops in brewing and for its health benefits date back as far as the Middle Ages. One of the most popular folk uses is as a "Hops-filled pillow", which is said to produce soothing, relaxing sleep. Hops is also used as a vegetable, its edible shoots eaten in place of asparagus.
