Rooftop Fresh Hop Ale with Amarillo

Release Date: Late September

This is from our tasting notes in the tap room from last year: "We get up at the crack of dawn to drive to Eastern Washington and pick up over 150 lbs of fresh hops that were just picked that morning. Meanwhile the brewers have the brew timed perfectly so that the hops can go directly into the wort when they arrive, just a couple hours after they are picked. It does not get any fresher than that!"

6% ABV | 50 IBU

Made with Brewer's Malt, 60L Crystal Malt, Red Wheat malts, kilned CTZ hops, and fresh cut Amarillo hops from Virgil Gamache Farms. Learn more about Virgil Gamache Farms
