ALPINE TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WOOD) — An event this weekend will give home brewers and beer enthusiasts an opportunity to pick their own hops.

On Saturday Dunneback Farm will allow people to head out into their hops field to pick their own bine to make beer with.

Representatives from Dunneback believe they are the first farm in the area to allow U-Pick hops.

Those who want to come out for the event will also have the opportunity to learn more about craft beer by having lunch with the brew master from Perrin Brewing.

“Now’s the time, this is like fresh hops right off the bine, from the bine to the glass is what we say. And we’re really excited about it. It’s really fun to learn about how hops grow and how this is a really big growing industry in Michigan,” said Stephanie Ginsberg with Dunneback Farms.

The event will run from 8:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. on Saturday.

The cost is $15 for the U-Pick and $27 if you would like to pick your hops and have lunch with the Perrin brew master. Dunneback Farms is located at 3025 6 Mile Rd in Alpine Township, just north of Grand Rapids.
