Organically grown fresh leaf hops for brewing

At Heritage Hill Organics we offer a selection of organically grown brewing hops for sale.

The current hops where harvested in September 2006 and have been packaged in vacuum sealed zip-locked bags. We sell then in 2 oz. packages, suitable for a couple of batches of beer. Our hops do not receive any pesticides, herbicides nor non-organic fertilizer during their growth. They are grown on 10 foot trellises in the open sun.

All orders will be accompanied with a recipe and step-by-step instructions on how to brew premium quality beer using only malted barley, hops and water.
