Pink Boots Blend
Yakima Chief Hops (YCH) has partnered with the Pink Boots Society to create an impact-driven hop blend for the entire industry to enjoy! YCH will donate $1 from each pound sold to the Pink Boots Society in support of its mission to provide career development and educational opportunities for women and non-binary individuals in the fermented and alcoholic beverage industry.
The annual blend is created through hands-on sensory selection by Pink Boots members, offering brewers a one-of-a-kind hop profile designed for expressive, creative brewing. The blend changes each year, reflecting changing tastes and creating new opportunities for recipe design. The 2025 Crop year Pink Boots Blend consists of Centennial, Ekuanot®, HBC 638, and Mosaic®.
