    It seems that I have some Common Hops growing in the back.

    Is it good for anything?

    Otherwise, I am leaning toward pulling it all out as a weed and throwing it in the organic bin.

    Home-made beer??

    IIRC, it's listed as an invasive species in N America, in at least some areas? I suspect you'll also find it hard to kill off. And anything you put in the organic bin, make sure it is thoroughly dried off first, to stop it rooting into the municipal compost heap!
