My guy does keep his hops in the fridge, but he doesn't stock enough whole hops. I use whole hops exclusively, so I mail order a bunch. If you go that route, try www.hoptech.com I'm not affiliated or anything, but I have been a satisfied customer for years. Fresh whole hops in many varieties, nitrogen packed and sealed in foil bags. They have pellets, plugs and other beer stuff too.

My hbs keeps them in the fridge out of light and sealed up. I dont even know if he has whole, I have only used the pellets. But mabe its time to try whole.
