Welcome to the 9th Annual Sisters Fresh Hop Festival! Every year, Three Creeks Brewing Company teams up with the Central Oregon Brewers Guild to raise money for the American Cancer Society. In 2017, we were able to raise over $10,000! What better way to fight for a cause than drinking the world's freshest beer with your friends? Join us for funky music, delicious food and fresh hop beer from over 25 Oregon breweries!

What is fresh hop beer? In order for a beer to be considered "fresh hopped," the hops must be picked and then brewed within 24 hours. The only time fresh hop beer can be created is during harvest season in late summer, early fall. Think of it as an herb: Dried vs. fresh. You will still get the herbal notes from the dried herb, but when it's fresh, you can taste the difference!

Most of the United States' hop production takes place in the Pacific Northwest, given its rich soil, rainfall and mild air. Sisters Fresh Hop Festival is a place to celebrate some of the world's finest beers and breweries!
