Judging for Sip Magazine's 15th Annual Best of the Northwest Beer Competition wrapped up on October 16! While the full list of award winners won't be announced until the first week of November, we're giving our Fresh Hop winners an early spotlight so you have time to seek out these seasonal favorites before they disappear.
Fresh hop season is fleeting, and these beers are here for a good time, not a long time! Huge cheers to this year's Fresh Hop winners and the breweries behind them.
Go chase those freshies!
