It’s fresh hop season in the Central Valley, and to celebrate we brewed this batch of IPA using farm-fresh, local hops. This batch was brewed with fresh Sterling, Chinook and Cascade hops from Putah Creek Hops in Winters, Cascade hops from Hood Hops Ranch and Maingate Family Farms. The hops were picked that morning, and within hours were being used to brew this intensely floral celebration of the harvest. The wet hops contribute a unique grassy character reminiscent of fresh cut hay, along with the classic strong spice and fruit that come with these local hops.
