After eight years in business as an award-winning hop farm, Billy Goat Hop Farm is opening its offerings to the public with camping, tours, and beers made with Billy Goat hops. Now guests can camp out at this idyllic location overlooking the San Juan Mountains, and catch Fridays On The Farm.
Billy Goat Hop Farm has been hard at work building the Down at the Hop Yard Campground and The Beer Barn.
The private camp sites are nestled among hop bines along the trellis perimeter, each with a 28ft x 15ft parking area and an adjacent 28ft x 15ft area to set up camp. ADA hot showers, flushing toilets, potable water, and a communal fire pit are a short walk away. Guests have the option to book a tour (with optional beer tasting) during their stay to walk the farm and learn more about growing hops.
The Down at the Hop Yard Campground is now available to book via HipCamp.
On Fridays from May 23 through October 3, The Beer Barn will open to campers and the public from 2 to 9pm. There will be beer from around the Southwest made with Billy Goat hops available, as well as the farm’s new hop water and Hop Drool hard seltzer. Fridays On The Farm will include rotating food trucks, yard games, and occasional live music. Children, dogs, and goats are always welcome.

“Before we even started the business, Chris and I dreamed of selling beer from the farm,” says Co-Owner Audrey Gehlhausen. “Families and friends laughing, dogs running around, cold beer, and surrounded by hops and mountains. We’re lucky to have found the wonderful community of Montrose to make this dream a reality. Not to mention the endless recreation around the Western Slope— work hard, play hard!”
