When you’re a brewer, the news that fresh hops are on their way can feel better than Christmas. That’s how this b**r got its name.
James heard fresh Mosaic hops were headed to the brewery from Yakima, and the excitement gave us a name that stuck.
Better Than Christmas is our celebration of hop harvest in a glass, a fresh-hop pale ale full of juicy flavor, with a clean, refreshing finish. A seriously thirst-quenching pint, and a good reminder of why this time of year means so much to brewers.
To add to the excitement our Lake City patio has hop vines growing all around it so you can see real hops up close. Check it out next time your here!
