Cowiche Canyon

FRESH HOP ALE

Cowiche Canyon Fresh Hop Ale is brewed from select organic hops grown in the Cowiche Canyon of the Yakima Valley which are harvested and placed into our kettle within 24 hours, creating a unique, once-a-year beer. We make Cowiche Canyon ale in partnership with hop-growing wizards from the Yakima Valley in an effort to expand the organic hop industry in Washington State...Because Organic Hops Matter! A portion of all sales fund the Cowiche Canyon Conservancy.
