After a bumper year, the Red Hill Brewery needs all hands on deck to help with the hops harvest. Familiarise yourself with the crucial beer ingredient with a day out on the Mornington Peninsula picking fresh hops, drinking beer and eating burgers.
The Red Hill Brewery’s hop-picking event is ideal for the true beer fan looking to find out more about their favourite bevvy. Beer, morning tea and picking gloves will be supplied to all participating hops harvesters, and Boomtown Burgers will be there on the day to feed the hungry.
This year the brewery will be creating two harvest ales from the hops, their seasonal English-style pale ale and an Indian pale ale, both due out at the end of March. Make sure you wear old clothes and practice sun safety.
