Who is Pat Smith? Pat Smith is a complex, multi-faceted human, just like all of us. But there is one realm that Pat Smith is NOT like us – GROWING HOPS. Year in and year out, Pat’s hops are of the highest quality this world has ever seen – from picking to kilning to baling, and that translates all the way through to the beer in your mouth. In the crop year of 2019,  Pat won the Cascade Cup with his hops from Tributary Farms. That’s the granddaddy of them all! And we were there! We rubbed it with our own hands and smelled it with our own noses that very day.  And let me tell you, this cascade is on a WHOLE ‘NOTHER LEVEL. We had to beg, borrow, prod, whine, & threaten (hollowly) just to get a couple boxes of them…and we regret nothing.
