Grassy Fork, Tennessee- The crew at Rapp Brewing of Seminole will celebrate their first anniversary in one short week on September 1st. The celebration will come with beer, revelry, and a food truck at the brewery.
Recently, owner Greg Rapp announced a new project for the brewery: a hop farm on his property in Grassy Fork, Tennessee:
this is our little homestead that has been sitting idle for a couple of years…I think its time to put it to work!
Greg also stated that he has six acres of land that could possibly be put to use for hop farming, having already test planted fifteen hop varietals. In a Tampa Bay, Florida, and U.S. craft beer market that is growing increasingly crowded with more brewers using the existing hop supply, this farm could allow the brewery many options in years to come.
