  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.

  This brewery tour video of Lakefront Brewery, Vice President, Jim Kilsch is awesome because he talks about getting stoned from pot! Well not quite. However, I have never heard such a description about hops being related to marijuana by plant family told in this way.
