Episode 54: Andrew - Hilltop Hops Farm (Upgrading to a bigger hop farm!)

We first spoke to Andrew from Hilltop Hops Farm back in Episode 8, when he and his business partner Steve, had a small hop farm in Hemmant, on Brisbane's bayside.

Since then, Hilltop have moved off the hill top, and expanded their hop farm to a new site in Cleveland, with even more room for growing hops! We chat about the expansion, and how things are looking for their first harvests at the new site.

They've even imported a new hop from the US, to grow in this new location. A process that was quite the undertaking!

We love our amazing sponsors Bintani, Konvoy Kegs, Craft Punks Canning, Rallings Labels and CRAFTD. Glass once again, our thanks. As industry people supporting the little guys like us, it's invaluable what they do for the industry, but also in support of us.

A special thanks also to both Amber Hour App for giving us use of their app, and Beers Illustrated for providing us with our awesome logos and continual support when we accidently delete them! And it goes without saying, thanks to Hiker Brewing Concern for giving us excellent beer many times a week, and letting run amok in their brewery more times per week than anywhere else.

And special thanks to you, our fans who may have watched or listened to this episode. Essentially, you're the reason we're doing this and it makes a world of difference. We could do it without you, but it wouldn't be as fun and probably not as worthwhile.
