Michael Ferguson is the Director of Hop Breeding at Haas, one of the Yakima Valley's premiere hop growers. His job is to cultivate the next great hop, and that involves breeding and evaluating thousands of clones, in search of the needle in the haystack. And we may have just found it. Adam and Matt sit down with Michael to discuss HBC 1019, a brand-new varietal that Reuben's Brews is helping to sponsor, and which made it in to our recent release "Puffs of [Classified]". Learn all about this hop and Michael's work in particular on this episode of Reuben's Sightglass.
