Win the ultimate hop country getaway from Bale Breaker



For beer lovers, there is something enchanting about hops. It’s visceral. Hops make us giddy. Even people who grew up deeply immersed in the world of hop farming, like the owners of Bale Breaker Brewing, are not immune. Now, they want to share some of their hop passion with you. (I provide these pictures to motivate you.)

Step One: Bottom Cutter.

Have you ever witnessed the annual hop harvest up close and personal? I mean, the real deal? The bottom cutters and top cutters, the hop-picking machines, the kiln, the bale-makers, and all that stuff? Probably not. It’s a rare treat that is just about impossible for regular, non-industry folks to experience.

Next: Top cutter.

Bale Breaker Brewing wants to show you what’s behind the curtain and is offering you a chance to win the ultimate hop country getaway. The winner of this contest will get overnight accommodations in Yakima and a very special tour of a real, working, busy hop farm at harvest time.

Hot, steamy, hoppy goodness in the kiln.

Along with that amazing experience, you’ll get a private VIP tour of Bale Breaker Brewing. Other stuff too. Details below.
