The 6th Annual Fresh Hop Ale Festival
One of the best ways to understand the growth in popularity of Northwest
craft beer is to explore the homeland of hops—the Yakima Valley. Hops
provide both aroma and flavor to beer: they’re crucial to the brewing process. How can you honor this important
ingredient? Attend the 6th annual
Fresh Hop Ale Festival on Saturday October 4th, which celebrates the
fact that 77%
of the total U.S. hop crop is grown right here!
