Yakima Chief Hop Rub Event with Pink Boots Society

Thank you so much to everyone who came out to Indian Ladder Farms Cidery & Brewery to participate in the 10th annual Yakima Chief Hop Rub event!

This year was a special one, as we were one of thirteen groups chosen to receive a hop rub kit. It was a collaboration between members of all of the NY chapters, a first of its kind!

It was so wonderful seeing members of the NY chapters including Western NY, NYC, Upstate NY, and Mid-Hudson Valley/Catskills come together to help choose the Pink Boots hop blend this year!

Cashmere, Willamette, and Talus were a few of the favorites, with grassy, floral, candy, and melon notes observed by some.

I’m proud to have been a member of the Pink Boots Society since 2018, and a member of the marketing committee. This group is near and dear to my heart, and I love the values they uphold: to assist, inspire and encourage women and non-binary individuals in the fermented beverage industry to advance their careers through education.
