How to Brew a Hemp Infused Campfire IPA by the River

Nothing like brewing outdoors especially when it’s a hemp infused IPA featuring Cascade and Mosaic hops!

This beer was made right in the forest with actual creek water down by my house in Northern Washington. It was brewed right down by the river and we even used an open campfire. Watch my adventure brewing in the forest below.
