Hop Farms
US hop farms grouped by state, with the varieties each publishes. A farm reaches the medal beers in two separate ways: through the hops it grows, and by name when a brewery published the farm.

What Is Not Known
Each row names a question the sources checked could not answer, so a missing farm or variety is a gap and not a no.
| Citra Mosaic Simcoe Loral Sabro Talus Ekuanot Pahto licensed growers | proprietary variety | Yakima Chief Ranches publishes a roster of the 41 farms it works with (Washington 22, Idaho 7, Oregon 12; 43 farms in a March 2023 snapshot) and says it manages Simcoe, Citra, Mosaic and Loral through Footprints and supplies true-to-type rootstock. The roster is not broken down by variety, so no per variety licensed grower list exists on any page read. The brands page lists Ahtanum, Citra, Dolcita, Ekuanot, HBC 682, Idaho 7, Krush, Loral, Mosaic, Palisade, Sabro, Simcoe, Talus and Warrior. Yakima Chief Ranches is owned by Perrault Farms, Loftus Ranches and Carpenter Ranches. The only farm level variety data point is Simcoe at Perrault Farms in 2017 (search summary). CLS Farms and Roy Farms: CLS is not on the Yakima Chief Ranches roster and Roy Farms is; no page read states Hop Breeding Company membership for CLS, Carpenter, Perrault or Roy. | web.archive.org web.archive.org web.archive.org web.archive.org web.archive.org mackinnonreport.substack.com yakimachiefranches.com subpages for breeding, IP management and news were not archived |

| Yakima Chief Hops grower pages | source partly archived | The live yakimachief.com returns a bot challenge and was not worked around. Public archive copies were read instead: the October 2026 growers page lists 14 grower-owners with owner names, the April 2026 meet the growers page lists 14 including Brulotte Farms and carries the Coleman Agriculture profile, and the Yakima Chief Ranches page lists the product lines. The individual farm pages for the other 13 growers were never archived, so their founding years, acreage and varieties remain unsourced, and the Cryo processing facility location is not stated. | web.archive.org web.archive.org web.archive.org archive availability checked for 14 individual grower page addresses with no snapshot |
| Citra and Mosaic ownership | proprietary variety | Haas history page says the Hop Breeding Company was formed by Haas and Select Botanicals LLC; other sources say Haas and Yakima Chief Ranches. A search result summary says Select Botanicals Group reverted to the name Yakima Chief Ranches in August 2018. No farm level propagation source for Citra or Mosaic was found. | johnihaas.com careers.yakimachief.com |
| Hopsteiner proprietary varieties | proprietary variety | The only licensed grower named is CLS Farms (2022, Sultana, Lotus, Calypso, Altus). The announcement names no other licensed growers. No Hopsteiner farms page exists in the archive (hopsteiner.com/hop-farms, hopsteiner.us and its growers pages have no snapshot) and the grower material is behind a portal. The archived Hopsteiner landing page lists company offices only. | washingtonbeerblog.com web.archive.org archive availability for hopsteiner.com/hop-farms, hopsteiner.us, hopsteiner.us/growers |
| Strata licensed growers | proprietary variety | Indie Hops publishes a grower list: F & B Farms and Nursery, Fobert Farms, BC Hop Farms, B & D Hop Farms, Sodbuster Farms, Crosby Hop Farm, and Roy Farms (licensed to grow, process and sell). Goschie Farms and Coleman Agriculture are named as Indie Hops growers of multiple public varieties and are not stated to grow Strata. | indiehops.com |
| El Dorado Medusa Zappa | proprietary variety | CLS Farms' own site names these as its proprietary varieties. No licensed grower list for them was found. | clsfarms.com |
| Amarillo VGXP01 | proprietary variety | The NASS table prints the designation VGXP01. The tie to Virgil Gamache Farms is from a search result summary only; no licensing list was found. | esmis.nal.usda.gov |
| Idaho Gem | proprietary variety | Gooding Farms' own site names Idaho Gem Brand 2012G01 Variety. No other grower is named. | goodingfarms.com |
| Grower totals and enumeration | coverage | No source gives a complete national grower list. 113 farm rows are recorded: Washington 28, Oregon 23, Idaho 17, Michigan 25, New York 12, Colorado 5, Minnesota 1, state not stated 2. Idaho is now complete against the one official list found: the 2026 Idaho State Department of Agriculture list names 17 distinct active hop growers (18 grower numbers, Gooding Farms twice) and all 17 are rows. Oregon has no official list; the Oregon Hop Commission board names 6 farms and the Yakima Chief Ranches roster adds 12, and the Oregon Encyclopedia says fewer than 30 families grow hops. Washington is the largest gap: 22 Yakima Chief Ranches roster farms plus other sourced farms against about 70 Pacific Northwest farms (trade newsletter, 2023) and no public Washington Hop Commission roster. Michigan has 25 names against more than 20 reported growers. Wisconsin (about 100 producers reported) has no named farm. | agri.idaho.gov oregonhops.org web.archive.org esmis.nal.usda.gov ericrsannerud.substack.com oregonencyclopedia.org hopgrowersofmichigan.com usahops.org |
| Commission rosters | coverage | Oregon Hop Commission: the site lists the 2025 to 2026 board only (7 grower seats, 1 vacant; 6 farms named), not members. Idaho: the Idaho State Department of Agriculture publishes the full licensed grower list (read). Washington: the Washington State Hop Commission has no site of its own (wahops.org redirects to Hop Growers of America), the WSDA commission page carried no commissioner or grower names in the first 100000 characters, and the Hop Growers of America grower directory is a supplier directory. The HGA annual report and statistical packet PDFs were too large or binary to read. | oregonhops.org agri.idaho.gov agr.wa.gov wahops.org usahops.org usahops.org usahops.org |
| New York Wisconsin Vermont California | coverage | New York: one farm read directly (Foothill Hops, Munnsville, in the state farm directory) plus two pelletizers from a Cornell FAQ; 11 further New York farm rows rest on search summaries. Cornell Small Farms said in 2018 that no New York grower had more than 40 acres. hopgrowersofnewyork.org redirects away and no member list was read. Wisconsin: the Wisconsin Hop Exchange grower map page returned no list; about 100 producers are reported and none are named. Vermont: no source read. California: no farm; 16 Quartz Hop Farm in the HGA directory may be Californian.

| Colorado Minnesota and Michigan directories | coverage | No static state directory was found for Colorado or Minnesota; farm names there rest on search summaries. The Great Lakes Hop Working Group is a researcher and extension group, not a grower roster, and the Hop Growers of America grower and supplier directories are member restricted or supplier lists. | canr.msu.edu usahops.org |
| Washington growers not on a roster | coverage | Washington farms outside the Yakima Chief Ranches roster, such as Segal Ranches, Haas Yakima Golding Farm, Virgil Gamache Farms, CLS Farms and Jeff Gamache Farms, have no Washington roster to confirm them against.
