We had an incredible time in Philly at the Craft Brewers Conference. Some of us even got the party started early in the Sea-Tac lounge—a flight attendant may have handed Drew six gins instead of chocolate for his status—There were a lot of late-night hours spent with the crew, catching up with SDP, taking in the Penguins vs. Flyers game, our sales director breaking up a fight, and plenty of Yuengling’s mixed between all the craft beers we sampled... After a well-deserved long weekend, we wanted to share a few highlights and extend our thanks to everyone who made it memorable:
It was a blast bringing our Hop EXPerience event to Philly! Being able to share new and exciting experimental varieties from Latitude 46 and Crosby Hops with such a wide and diverse audience was truly memorable. The increased interest in Adeena®, Azacca®, and ADHA 1631 has geared up for harvest. Our sincerest thanks to all the brewers who participated: .
Seeing Latitude 46’s ADHA-1631 showcased at USA Hops booth… A special thank you to Stone Brewing for crafting such an incredible beer featuring our hops!
We were also excited to share our Velvet Cake Hop Blend with the CBC audience. Featuring Roy Farms–grown Azacca®, Chinook, Amarillo®, and Cashmere sourced through , this blend smells fantastic—we can’t wait to get it into brewers’ hands. Shout out to for the awesome hats!
A big thank you to our partners at for sharing their booth and showcasing Roy hops at the Crosby Tap Trailer. Reconnecting with the Crosby team over beers at the trailer was definitely a highlight!
Cheers to Philly—already planning for San Antonio 🍻
