Well spotted thanks, bought a ton of different hops.

JIMSBK code for 5% off

Nice spot. I was looking to order some Saaz and EKG from somewhere, so add a load of Aurora on to the order to compliment them.

Cheers BB, picked up a nice selection including a few I've been wanting to try for a while such as Nugget, El Dorado, Archer and Olicana.

4/5/6 year old hops....will they be any good, even though vacuum packed?

According to the above they are cold stored, but it really comes down to the variety and how you intend to use them. A variety with higher Storage Index and used in more balanced beer styles should be fine and worth a punt for £1.

Personally, I opted for a 2020 European hop (so realistically 3 and 1/2 years old) with a good storage index, for use in Saison, Bitter etc. I wouldn't be buying the 6 year old ones for a NEIPA.

Has anyone who placed an order received their hops? I’m asking because mine were sent on a two day service on Monday and haven’t arrived yet. Unfortunately they used Evri and the last two items sent to me by Evri, from two completely different companies, have been “lost”!

Literally in the last 10 minutes.

Got mine today where at home when I got in from work @2pm

I waited a week for a sack of grain from the hop shop, it's time the government introduce a compensation scheme for companys who deliver late or lose items

Expect the scheme to be late and under-delivered.

 

[pilgrimhudd]

Yeah been a week and not received yet.....

 

[Benfleet Brewery]

Mine now saying attempted delivery will try again next working day.
Exactly what happened the last two times.
Honestly, there’s an Evri employee somewhere in south Essex with a garage like f***ing Aladdin’s cave!

 

[The Baron]

To be fair to Evri we have a very good delivery driver in our area, he has been with them 3 years and we never have a problem with him. I know they are all not as good though.

Got back from work and thought what's that big box addressed to me, I can't remember ordering anything ?

Hops !! (Better get brewing...)

 

[Sadfield]

Must be a full £8 worth there.
