Fresh hops straight from the field, brewing together, and finally, a beer you’ve brewed yourself: At this hands-on event, anyone interested can learn about the entire brewing process—from the hop harvest to the tasting—and get involved themselves.

It all kicks off on Saturday, September 5, 2026, with the hop harvest, followed by brewing. We’ll need plenty of helping hands for the harvest. After primary fermentation, on September 26, we’ll rinse the bottles and bottle the beer. On November 7, following secondary fermentation, the event will conclude with a group tasting and distribution of the green-hopped beer.

Here’s an overview of the dates:
