There was also a huge fire in a hop warehouse in October 2006: Oct 3, 2006 - A fire in Yakima, Wash., destroyed a warehouse full of hops with contents worth between $3.5 million and $4 million. Early estimates indicated that up to 4% of the 2006 U.S. hops crop could be lost but the impact on brewers and beer prices is not yet clear. http://www.realbeer.com/news/articles/news-003009.php This had an impact on hops supply and demand even this year.
