Welcome!



Ocean State Hops is bringing hops back to Rhode Island. Fueled by a passion to cram as many hops into each batch of beer as humanly possible, we decided to start growing our own. And with our recent expansions, we are happy to be able to supply hops to other brewers looking to quench their thirst for hops.

2010 Early Summer Picture Update

As promised, summer 2010 pictures! We'll keep it short and sweet and get to the good stuff. The old plants are flowering and some even have a few cones already. The new plants are just starting to take off. A few more weeks of warm weather and they'll be reaching for the top of the trellis.

Tupelo and Summit, the new farm guard dogs, are happy with the progress so far...















The older plants reached the top of the trellis in mid to late June.

































Look at those flowers!!



























































A few Chinooks are starting to form cones already.



























































A ways to go for the new plants, but they're off to a good start.














































Tupelo approves.














Summit says "where are the Summit plants??"














What a way to end the day...

    Look great! Are you guys still planning on just offering dried whole cone hops, or are there plans for any pelletization? Also, when the crop is in, where can we (the homebrewers) purchase these local hops?

    Thanks JW! This year we will only be offering the whole leaf hop cones. By next year though, we should be offering our hops in pelletized form also. We'll be posting updates on the website about when the 2010 harvest is ready. It should be sometime in late August or early September. Thanks for checking!
