I am super stoked to meet lots of hoppy people at the Gorst Valley Hop Seminar tomorrow. This event is the 3rd annual and is held in Cross Plaines, WI (45 minutes from my front door – Nice!).

The workshop includes speakers from Gorst Valley (Mazomanie, WI) including: James Altwies, Dan Dettmers, Christine Molling and features Hops from the Brewer’s Point-of-View, a 45 minute lecture by Kirby Nelson of Capital Brewery, Middleton, WI.

The all day hops seminar goes from 8 o’clock am to 5 o’clock pm, includes lunch, 2 breaks and a special gathering at a brewery afterwards.
