Quality hops grown to organic standards in northern Maine's legendary soil
Aroostook Hops is a small family farm that started growing hops in
Westfield, Maine in 2009. Our mission is to produce excellent quality
whole hops for brewing, and rhizomes for propagation using organic
farming methods.
We are surrounded by beautiful rural views of Mars Hill Mountain (with
its 28 wind turbines) to the east, Aroostook State Park's Quaggy Jo
Mountain to the northwest, and a mix of rolling farm fields and woods
all around.
In our 1 acre mature hopyard, we grow four varieties: Nugget, Cascade, Centennial, and Willamette. In 2011, we added another 3 acre hopyard (bringing us up to a total of 4 acres of hops) and added a new variety - Mount Hood.
