Beer Release: Fresh as it Gets & Mystical Misfit are Here for Fresh Hop Beer Season
Fresh hop season is finally here, and we couldn’t be more excited to share not one, but two limited-time releases with you. We’re rolling out “Fresh as it Gets” Fresh Hop IPA and the latest addition to our Project X Series, Mystical Misfit. Both beers showcase what we love most about brewing — creativity, seasonality, and unforgettable flavor.
What is Fresh Hop Beer?
If you’re new to fresh hop beers, they’re some of the most exciting and limited releases of the year. Unlike typical beers brewed with dried or pelletized hops, fresh hop beer is brewed with hops that go straight from the field into the kettle — often within 24 hours, but in our case within an hour of being picked. The result is a burst of bright, vibrant flavors you can only capture during harvest season. Fresh hop season only comes once a year, and for us, it’s about more than just brewing a beer — it’s about honoring the harvest. Using hops straight from the field lets us showcase the ingredient in its purest form. The flavors are brighter, the aromas are more intense, and the experience of drinking a fresh hop beer connects you directly to the season.
Fresh as it Gets: Our True Fresh Hop Beer Experience
Every year, we look forward to brewing fresh hop beer, and Fresh as it Gets is our way of capturing the fleeting magic of the harvest. This year’s release is crafted with freshly picked Simcoe hops, which deliver bright citrus zest, juicy stone fruit, and a subtle pine undertone. The combination creates a bold yet balanced IPA with passionfruit and apricot aromas, a crisp citrus bite, and just the right touch of earthy resin to keep hop lovers coming back.
This beer has a pedigree, too — the recipe earned a medal at the Great American Beer Festival (GABF). Reimagined with just-harvested hops, Fresh as it Gets truly lives up to its name.
As our Brewmaster, Chris Baker, puts it:
“What makes our fresh hop beers unique is the proximity to the hop fields. We can have the hops in the kettle in under an hour, hence the name. Getting it from harvest to the brewhouse is huge in minimizing oxidation and really getting the full expression of the raw ingredient with minimal processing.”
Mystical Misfit: The New Face of Project X
While Fresh as it Gets is all about tradition and seasonality, Mystical Misfit brings a fresh twist to our rotating Project X Series. This hazy IPA builds on Simcoe’s juicy base with the addition of Galaxy and Nelson hops, creating a trifecta of tropical, citrus, and wine-like flavors that make each sip pop.
To match the beer’s bold character, we collaborated with digital artist Emerald Bay, whose vibrant artwork brings Mystical Misfit’s label to life. It’s a beer that’s as visually stunning as it is delicious.
How to Find Them
Both Fresh as it Gets and Mystical Misfit are rolling out now through October in limited quantities at our taprooms and through our distribution network in 16oz cans and on draft. You can find them near you using our Beer Finder.
We’re also throwing our Fresh Hop Party on October 18th at all three of our tap rooms, where you’ll be able to enjoy Fresh as it Gets alongside several other small-batch fresh hop brews. It’s our way of celebrating one of the most exciting times of year in craft beer.

Love how you capture the essence of harvest season with Fresh as it Gets—using Simcoe hops within an hour of picking is next-level freshness! It’s that same attention to detail and seasonal creativity that makes limited releases so special. Kind of like how thoughtful design brings seasonal themes to life in other spaces, like generating themed coloring pages for kids to enjoy during fall festivities. Keep up the great work—fresh beer and fresh ideas go hand in hand. aicoloringpagegenerator.org
The fact that they get hops into the kettle within an hour of picking is wild, and it really shows in those bright flavors. I wonder if this free ASVAB score checker would help me compare study time with tasting notes, though.
Great post! It's exciting to see fresh hop beer releases and new seasonal flavors. Sustainability is also important for businesses in the beverage industry, and understanding EPR Registration can help companies stay informed about their packaging waste management responsibilities and applicable environmental regulations.
I love how you captured the essence of fresh hop season! It’s a reminder of how nature can inspire creativity, just like when I’m puzzling through the wordle answer today. Thanks for sharing this delightful experience! 🍻
