He plucked this wild hop, cultivated it, & shared it with few lucky breweries – including us – to brew something fun to learn more about this brand new hop. We're so pumped – & most just honored – to be part of the sensory researching & most importantly beer tasting phase. Cheers to new discovery & endless beer possibilities!
