Resplendent Oregon hop farm has ultimate beer garden (TopWire Hop Project) reopening April 30 (enjoy some images)

April 15, 2021Pretty Much a Press Release

Crosby Farm TopWire Hop Project 1

If you want to be surrounded by the emerald curtains of Centennial hops, catch a glimpse of Mt. Hood and drink the best craft beer while 6 ft apart, there is only one place to go — TopWire Hop Project in Woodburn, Oregon. The one-of-a-kind beer garden is situated on the beautiful estate of Crosby Hop Farm, an independent, fifth-generation hop grower nestled in Oregon’s heralded Willamette Valley. The Project reopens starting Friday, April 30.

Drive down Lupulin Lane (a half-mile entrance through lush 18-ft high hop rows — photo below) before arriving at TopWire. Constructed out of a large shipping container with a modern architectural approach, it features a spacious outdoor area where people of all ages (following the COVID-19 protocols) and dogs on leash can gather and play.

What’s new?

Newly expanded for the 2021 season with a second pouring station (coming by the end of June), patrons will enjoy more snack options including food from Luis’s Taqueria, and a new TopWire beer and cider line of beverages. The majority of the tap list for the grand reopening will be special collaboration beers, including a rotating West Coast style IPA series from Grains of Wrath that will change throughout the season. Gift cards can be purchased onsite. 

When again?

The rotating tap list will feature specialty craft beer and cider brewed by Crosby Hops’ customers from across the country showcasing new, classic, and novel hop varieties. A total of nine craft beers including the new TopWire beer and cider lines from Grains of Wrath and Incline Cider Company will be available, some for a limited time.

Sixteen-ounce cans of any beverage on tap are available to go (prices vary: $3-6). The to-go cooler features additional selections of craft beer, cider, wine and non-alcoholic beverages.

Collabs and special releases 

Crosby Farm TopWire Hop Project 5

For the grand reopening, more than half of the tap list consists of unique collaborations and special releases brewed with Crosby Hops. 

  1. Grains of Wrath with locations in Camas, Washington and Portland, Oregon, is collaborating with TopWire for an exclusive rotating West Coast IPA series. Known for its bright, clean, bitter-but-balanced West Coast IPAs, this line will feature different hops for each brew. 
  2. Based on Block 15’s Sticky Hands, a NW cult favorite and Gold Medal Winner of the 2020 Oregon Beer Awards, the first ever Sticky Hands collaboration, Sticky Hands: Crosby Cuts brewed with Strata®, Amarillo® and Comet will be on draught and available in cans for a limited time. 
  3. AZ Wilderness’ dry-hopped lager collaboration, Green for Good brewed with Crosby Estate Grown Comet and Strata® hops has a charity component. A portion of the sales from the collaboration, which is pouring at TopWire and onsite at the brewery’s taproom, will go back to the Michael James Jackson Foundation for Brewing and Distilling. 
  4. The family-owned Incline Cider Company based in Tacoma, Washington is debuting Grapefruit 7, a cider pouring only at TopWire, brewed with Crosby sourced Idaho 7® hops. 
  5. Grain Station Brew Works in McMinnville, Oregon brewed Lager Rhythms, a Helles with all Oregon ingredients using Crosby Estate grown Mt. Hood hops.
  6. Stick City Brewing based in Mars, Pennsylvania brewed an original beer to support the seasonal opening. The hazy IPA utilizes Idaho 7®, Strata® and Columbus from Crosby Hops.
