The Red Hill Brewery is unique as we have our own
hopyard onsite and organically grow all our own hops
for use in our beers. We use the whole hop flowers,
dried here in Red Hill, in the brewing process.

We grow five varieties of hops
* Hallertauer
* Tettnanger
* Golding
* Willamette
* Pride of Ringwood

The fertile soil at Red Hill has meant that the hops are abundant. Growing over a foot a day in December,
reaching about 18 feet high, they are a spectacular
sight.

 

 

Every year around mid-March, friends of the Red Hill Brewery gather to pick the seasons hops.

Pull up a deck chair, grab a pint of brewery fresh ale
and chat and pluck all weekend. This has been a
huge weekend with kids catered for and great beer
and food supplied.
