Anyone used Brew-Depot for Hops by the Pound?

GlassblowersBrew · Sep 8, 2009

Has anyone used brew-depot before? Their prices for bulk hops are pretty darn good. I need some Simcoe and couldn't get it from the hops direct.com sale going on right now and found them at brew-depot for $16 per lb and thought that sounded like a great price. Any experience with them...?

Never used Brew-Depot but I would guess that the low price is them trying to clear last year's inventory to make room for his season's crop.

I can dig that. For me the lower price is worth it for year old hops. I would imagine they are stored in a freezer in vacuum bags. Good enough for me

Is brew-depot reputable otherwise?

That is a fairly annoying web site, layout wise.

just an fyi: Hops Direct is under $10/lb on many varieties. Looks like they are blowing out last years hops!

I think that's the LHBS down the road from my office. If he's selling hops at $1.83/oz or $17/lb online then, well, I may have to have a word or two with him. Last time I was in his store he got me for $3.25/oz for some Simcoe.

You're talking about brew-depot.com, correct?

Their web-site is a bit spartan and the contact information did not show. Let us know if the hops show up in a timely manner.

GlassblowersBrew · Sep 9, 2009

There is zero contact info on their site. Not even a phone number or address. I'd like to call them to see whats up, see if they are a real site or not, before I make an order. Seems a little odd....?
