The September hop harvest is a once-a-year opportunity to brew with fresh hops, also called "wet hops." Given the perishable nature of just-harvested hop cones, they are shipped overnight to Great Divide shortly after harvest. The morning of the scheduled hop delivery in Denver, Great Divide's brewers begin brewing Fresh Hop and are ready to hop the beer just as the fresh hops are delivered.

Best With: 
The fresh, grassy hops of Fresh Hop pair extremely well with Epoisses, a runny, rich intensely perfumed cheese from Burgundy, France. Grilled trout, bratwurst, and garlic/ginger sweet potatoes are also great options.
