Bulk Hops

GetErBrewed are now doing hops in bulk. Some varieties are more keenly priced than others - I just snagged a kilo of Citra for £36.

Has the price of Citra sored recently?

In December I was paying about £5 for 100g,now it seems to be closer to £8, if it's available at all.

Some of the prices are mental, I've decided that as there are sooo many new world hopped beers in pubs/bars and offies now I'll just homebrew lower hopped/british hopped beers for now ;) Not that paying a few quid more for hops per batch is exactly bank breaking but this way I think I'll actually expand on what I'm drinking

There's a world of other beer out there! Thank God I'm not a big hop head!

Thank you. I don't know I couldn't find that page. I guess I was just looking at the hops page thinking it would be at the bottom of the option tab. 20g 50g 100g 250. 450g.

I certainly wouldn't be changing what I brew just because of a relatively small increase in the price of a hop. If 100g of hops increases by £1 that's really only adding 2.5p per pint, split over 40 pints - certainly no reason to stop me from brewing exactly what I want.

Obviously, ways of cutting costs like this are always welcome =D>
