My neighbor grows them (Chicago burbs). He has long twine to the top of his garage on the southern exposure and they do pretty well. He bought vines that were already 'started' and I think he got some hops the first year. This year they are really coming in strong.
My understanding is that he still used purchased hops for his brewing process, but intends to use the ones he's growing as a 'flavoring agent' at the end of the process. I may have not quoted that correctly, but he makes good beer.
