| November 14, 2014 | Beers on film, Oregon beer | 1 Comment

In this video, Astoria’s Fort George Brewery founder Chris Nemlowill and Coava Coffee Roasters founder Matt Higgins passionately speak about this year’s collaborative release Java the Hop. The beer is getting a lot of praise and is available all around the Pacific Northwest to the delight of craft beer and coffee geeks alike.

Java The Hop is a beer that is bred from curiosity, passion and collaboration. Single Origin Hops + Single Origin Beans = Java The Hop The Java: From Kiambu East District, Kenya, the Gichuna coffee beans grow on a family farm that has been passed down for multiple generations. They wet mill, ferment, and wash on site, then dry the beans on raised beds. Expect hints of caramel, molasses, and carob mixed with notes of ruhbarb, hibiscus, and currant. The Gichuna beans are imported and roasted exclusively by Coava Coffee. The Hop: First bred by Yakima Chief Ranches, Simcoes are a unique American hybrid with a strong Northwest flavor. Aromas of passionfruit, apricot, and intense pine and woodsy aroma add to the fresh, youthful vigor of this complex hop.
