American Hop Museum

Small local museum. The museum is on a reservation and in a dry area. The exhibits are a little old but also still interesting. I was expecting something a little bigger and better sponsored by the hop growers. The intro video is fun and worth watching.

Full of history & exhibits of raising hops. And a great gift shop!

Whether you know a little or alot about hops cultivation it is a great stop. Mary Belle is a great hostess, made the stop even nicer.

Thoroughly enjoyable gem of a tiny museum - This place is worth a stop while you are in Yakima Valley to get a basic familiarization with the basics of things you absolutely never thought about before in the flavor making component of your favorite beer. You can easily do it in 2 hours, and walk away with a day well spent because you learned something today. Great break from wine tasting, fun side trip in Toppenish which has great art murals on the buildings all over the place and is worth a visit just because of the murals. While you are there recommend that you eat at one of the local Mexican restaurants which were pretty good.

Fascinating little museum on the history of something I didn’t know existed. Very dated in the 80s, but informative nonetheless.
