Peaks and Pints Rogue Ales IPA Party

Peaks and Pints will hold a Lodge Meeting with Rogue Ales on the agenda — specifically the southern Oregon’s Hop Family series of IPAs, celebrating all 8 varietals of hops grown at Rogue Farms. It’s a family of five distinct IPAs, each a unique blend of hops personally selected by Rogue Brewmaster John Maier. The Hop Family is comprised of 4 Hop IPA, 5 Hop IPA, 6 Hop IPA, 7 Hop IPA and 8 Hop IPA. Rogue grows its own hops on a 42-acre hopyard on the banks of the Willamette River in Independence, Oregon. The eight varieties include Alluvial, Freedom, Independent, Liberty, Newport, Rebel, Revolution and Yaquina hops. Each year, Rogue Farms strings, stakes, trains, trims, separates, sorts, kilns, cools and bales the hops it grows before sending them to the Rogue Brewery in Newport, Oregon. The entire Hop Family will be pour from Peaks and Pints’ Western red cedar tap log during the May 11 Lodge Meeting.
