Yeah, some homebrew club should jump on that. That's over 100 pounds just in hops.

 

[Apoxbrew]

nice!! 200 bucks seems like quite a deal... though i didn't really price anything there out.

 

[Dahoov]

Um.....HOLY CRAP!!!!!

 

[samc]

I'd be sure to open a bag of hops prior to buying. It wouldn't be a great deal if the hops all smelled like cheese. Otherwise it is a lot of hops for the money.

 

[passedpawn]

what the hell. If I was anywhere near boulder I'd buy all of it right this minute.

 

[dcHokie]

Calling all Boulder-based HBT'ers! Provided those hops are in decent shape, quite the opportunity for an intrepid brewer. Resell individual lbs of hops here for cheap to move quickly, make a little profit, and keep 360+ lbs of grain for your trouble.

If someone does this, I’ll take a pound each of all 8 varieties.

 

[ProzHack]

Hold on... gotta go talk to the wife about the sudden need for a road trip...

 

[alowell]

I'm on it. Wrote the guy to go look at all of it. I'll keep you guys posted

I'm in for some of those hops. Amarillo, Centennial.

 

[tankata]

Wow, that's a lot of ingredients to brew through.

 

[zeekage]

Indeed, I'd be in for some Amarillo/Simcoe/Centennial if you'll ship some of your excesses. Keep us updated.

 

[ProzHack]

No fair. Your drive is shorter than mine... oh well. I'd be in for a pound of each pellet type.

 

[alowell]

OK, currently the hops and grain are not in Boulder, but he will be bringing them down this week. He says everything is a couple of years old. I'll let everyone know what the verdict is and if I grabbed them.

 

[wildwest450]

Who wants two year old hops and grain? yuck

Make some lambics with the aged hops.

 

[alowell]

I'll see what they look, smell, feel like and then everyone can make a decision from there

 

[ProzHack]

2yr old hops vacuum sealed in the cold? Um, yeah. I'm okay with some cheap hops. Price is the question. Grain? Uh... awaiting verdict.

 

[alowell]

The guy should be bringing them down from the mountains this weekend and I'll check them out. If they check out, would $5/lb. be reasonable to sell them for? I'll probably keep a bunch and not sell some. Just feeling it out, not even sure I'll take them all.

If they have not been oxidized (i.e., all retain their original AA) then that would be a fair price. If they have "aged", well that's a lot of lambic to be brewing

Good luck, I'd still be interested in a box of Saaz pellet (or maybe the NB, although that's a fairly low AA).

 

[DarkPhyre]

I wouldn't use it. But I hope it works out well.

 

[Hernando]

If the cond. is fair, I would be willing to take some off your hands. I could meet you somewhere.

 

[alowell]

This guy used to be the brewer at a pub in the mountains. He is telling me that they have all been stored properly. He says the hops have "been stored dry and cold or frozen". If they have aged and are cheesy, I won't get them...not worth it for lambics!

Just trying to gauge interest. If the hops are in great shape, I still won't get them if I can't sell a bunch of them.

 

[TheMan]

I'd be willing to take some if you get it. That price sounds fair.

 

[Chefencore]

I'm down for some hops

 

[zeekage]

At $5/lb i would take a few pounds for sure.

 

[ZamaMan]

If they truely are fresh tasting still Id be ibterested in a ccouple lb prob simcoe and amarillo.

 

[cyberbackpacker]

I'd be in too.

 

[stompbox]

same here

 

[kdoggmoney52]

I am with everyone else. If they are still good willing to by a couple pounds of that simco and others.

 

[bigbeergeek]

Holy $hit.

 

[bigbeergeek]

I'd buy 'em today if the quality is there.

 

[ProzHack]

Yeah, at $5/ lb, I'd buy some this weekend. Put me down for 1# each of the pellets, plus the centennial and CTZ. If you buy them could you have them weighed/separated by Monday? I'm not local, but have a friend traveling back from that area on Tues morning.

 

[alowell]

Maybe. I have some people that are interested in whole boxes. The rest I can separate out, probably into ziplocs and ship in flat rate boxes. I'll keep everyone posted

 

[zeekage]

Sounds perfect to me. I'd take a lb of simcoe/Amarillo/centennial for sure.

 

[ZamaMan]

How many lbs are iin whole boxes?

 

[alowell]

11 lbs. in most boxes

 

[JRems]

I would buy a pound of simcoe , Amarillo, and ctz.
