It’s hop harvest time again. That means it’s time for fresh hop ales, and Two Beers Brewing Company wants to be the first out of the gate this season with their 2013 Fresh Hop Ale. “This Northwest-inspired brew’s strong citrus aroma – featuring hints of grapefruit and passion fruit – can be attributed to the freshly picked Yakima Valley-grown Centennial hops from Puterbaugh Farms used to create it.”
Perhaps you were at Two Beers Brewing Company last week for their hop picking party(?) A small army of Two Beers employees and patrons took a few hours carefully picking hops from vines harvested earlier that day in Yakima Valley and the Fresh Hop Ale was brewed with those hops later that same day.
