Hop & Brew School Ep13 | Hop Contracting

In this episode of the Hop & Brew School® Podcast, Nick Zeigler walks us through the process of hop contracting. For years now, the need for brewers to better plan for their craft beer creations to come to life, has included contracting hops well in advance. This not only ensures brewers have what they need on-hand to brew, but also allows farmers and wholesalers to plan through the entire supply chain. With the knowledge he has gained as both a commercial brewer and now at Yakima Chief Hops, Nick describes each step of the process for us and offers a step by step guide to getting the most out of your hop contracts.
