Vista, CA & Nampa, ID – October 18th, 2024. Mother Earth released its annual fresh hop beer this week, aptly named for its key ingredient, fresh hops, and features a recently rebranded experimental varietal known to most as HBC-586, now coined Krush. Mother Earth’s proximity to hop farms is largely responsible for the style the brewery termed, “a farm-to-kettle IPA”, and boasts a transit time of just several hours from the grower to the brewery.
