In this Brewbound interview, host Ray Latif speaks with Chris Swersey of Hop Products Australia and Steve Luke of Cloudburst Brewing to discuss the latest hop harvest, new investments in processing, and exciting beer collaborations. Chris shares insights on HPA’s recent harvest, noting that yields and quality were well above average. He also highlights the company's new $35 million pellet plant, which will enhance the quality of their finished products.

Steve discusses his experience brewing with HPA’s Galaxy hops, particularly in the new collaboration beer "Yay Space," set to debut at the CBC. He explains how the beer blends fresh and aged lots of Galaxy, creating a balanced hazy IPA with a drier finish. With enthusiasm for the latest crop, both Chris and Steve express optimism about the future of Galaxy hops and the opportunities they create for brewers worldwide.
