This is the story of how one very special brewer saved one of the world’s most popular hops. Listen in as YCH Chief Supply Chain Officer, Steve Carpenter, and Co-Owner and Brewmaster, Vinnie Cilurzo, from Russian River Brewing Company, tell the story of how Simcoe® was saved from being discarded as a hop variety. Along the way, a family farm was also impacted in more ways than anyone knew. It’s a touching tale of a hop head’s favorite variety that we might not know today if it weren’t for a couple of very popular craft brews.
