It’s that time of year, folks! Fresh Hop season is upon us, so the Grit & Grain thought it was a perfect time to bring back our good buddy Kirby Redman, director at Wyckoff Farms. But, this time, we wanted to get extra nerdy so Kirby trucked over Wyckoff’s chief agronomist Gracen Gonzalez; an absolute powerhouse of encyclopedic hop knowledge. We get into wild hops, fresh hops, hop harvest, hop genetics, hop pests, and hop farm operations — basically everything you need to know to walk away a certified hop nerd ready to tackle the upcoming fresh hop season.
Tune in, crack your favorite hoppy beer, and level up with us!
