![]() | ![]() Bonners Ferry, Idaho Elk Mountain Hop Farm is owned and operated by Busch Agricultural Resources, Inc. -- and is one of the only hop farms in the world owned by a brewer. "As Mr. Busch emphasizes everytime he visits the Farm, hops are one of the most important ingredients for brewing great beers. Though we may be a little subjective, we believe our aroma hops are the finest produced in the world -- and everytime we enjoy an Elk Mountain Ale, we can smell and taste the results of our work. That's a very satisfying feeling," said Brad Studer, manager of Elk Mountain Hop Farm.
Why Bonners Ferry? "It took a great amount of effort, commitment and expense to propagate our root stock into the thousands of plants here at Elk Mountain Hop Farm," said Studer. "That commitment has started at the very top of the company ... August A. Busch III takes a very active role in the management of the Farm and was here to help oversee the start of the harvest."
