Is your friend or loved one a beer enthusiast keen on learning how to grow hops in their own backyard? This event would be perfect for them!

Ryefield Hops for a farm tour and DELVE DEEPER into the world of hop growing. 4 hours of knowledge, tour, tastings and good food.

They will leave with a few crowns (hop plants) to plant and everything they need to know about growing at home. They’ll get a complete ‘homebrew kit’ complete with our hop pellets, Voyager Craft Malt, Mogwai Labs yeast and a custom recipe exclusive to attendees. They will walk away with knowledge about where to plant their hops, how to care for them during the growing season and how to process and store hops at home. They'll also get an in-depth tour of our field and processing shed to see how hops are grown on a commercial scale.

They will surrounded by likeminded individuals keen to learn about a core ingredient in beer. They’ll also be part of an exclusive experience where they get to brew the exact recipe as a commercial brewer. They’ll be given all the quality ingredients to take home and brew without delay. They’ll get to taste the exclusive brew at the workshop and will be given the opportunity to take some home with you.

Ryefield Hops pride themselves on producing sustainable hops grown using regenerative agriculture principles. We’ll touch on the differences between this and conventional farming throughout the workshop so they can decide what methods they wish to adopt. They’ll take home two hop crowns ready to start growing with their newfound knowledge.
