Wet Hop Festival at Fogbelt Brewing Co.

Sun, September 3, 2017, 12:00 pm - 7:57 pm

2nd Annual Wet Hop Fest!
Join us for a the best beer time of the year…harvest! Harvest gives us the opportunity to showcase the hop in its best form. We will also be taking the ENTIRE parking lot for this event and will have an outdoor bar, BBQ cooking street tacos, hop picking demo, and a cigar and beer pairing section in the back of the lot provided by Squire Cigars. You don’t want to miss this Labor Day Weekend event!

What are Wet Hops? They are hops that are used in brewing immediately after being picked from the bine (not vine). Wet hops have a different taste than kiln-dried hops. The base notes are similar, but there’s less full-throttle intensity, and the fresh hops add a vibrancy, a fineness, a definition, and a chlorophyll-driven energy that you don’t get in standard-hopped beers. Sounds good, doesn’t it?!
