Ferment Fresh Hop Chinook Pale Ale
There is something special about Chinook hops. Embraced for their distinctive fruity and spicy evergreen notes and a splash of rich grapefruit Chinooks are balanced by a subtle woody earthiness in this golden pale ale. Once a year in the Northern Hemisphere, we get to brew beer in it's purest form. Hop cones, cut from the trellises, are immediately collected by bleary-eyed brewers on a pre-dawn mission. Once back at the brewery, fresh hop cones are crammed into a fermenter with freshly brewed American pale ale to extract the magic that is the fresh hop brew.
Ingredients: Rahr old world pilsner malt and fresh Chinook hops from Coleman Farms.

Ferment Fresh Hop Centennial Pale Ale
Pale Ale featuring fresh Centennial hops that were harvested from Coleman Farms in Woodburn, Oregon, trucked back to the brewery the same day as harvest, and immediately packed into a fermenter containing a freshly brewed American Pale Ale. The base beer is brewed with Rahr Old World Pilsner malt and malted wheat, making way for a big peach, grapefruit, and distinct fresh hop character.
