Hillsboro Hops and BridgePort Brewing Company Extend Partnership

Hillsboro, OR (March 3, 2016) – The Hillsboro Hops and BridgePort Brewing Company announced today that they have extended their partnership. BridgePort will continue to produce the award-winning Hillsboro Hops special brew known as “Long Ball Ale”. The popular brew is available at Ron Tonkin Field during Hillsboro Hops home games, at BridgePort Brewing’s BrewPub located in the Pearl District of Portland, on-tap at select bars and restaurants, and at select grocery stores in Oregon, Washington and Idaho.

The BridgePort Brewing partnership also includes BridgePort brands featured throughout Ron Tokin Field through signage and logos. An official BridgePort Beer Garden located off of the first base line will continue to offer access to food, craft beer and a great view of the field.

“We created Long Ball Golden Ale specifically to welcome the Hops to Hillsboro three years ago. It’s been a fan favorite since day one. It’s certainly my favorite while I’m at their beautiful ballpark watching the MLB stars of tomorrow play great baseball," stated Brewmaster Jeff Edgerton. "We’re excited to continue as a partner with the Hops and wish them continued success in the coming season.”

Long Ball Ale won gold in the English-Style Gold Ale/Summer Ale category at last year’s European Beer Star Awards held in Doemens Brewing Academy in Gräfelfing, near Munich, Germany. Long Ball Ale, dry-hopped with Meridian hops from Willamette Valley, is a golden ale with refreshing lemon notes crafted by Brewmaster Jeff Edgerton. The European Beer Star Awards is considered the Champions League of the international brewery world.

The back-to-back defending champion Hillsboro Hops will host their home opener at Ron Tonkin Field on Monday, June 20^th against the Eugene Emeralds. 2016 season tickets and mini plans are on sale now by calling the Hillsboro front office at (503) 640-0887 or online atwww.hillsborohops.com.
