Well if it comes to it we can all stand together and maybe put forward a petition and a brewing report on are findings of the flyer hop to Charles faram. Hopefully we can keep this fantastic new hop going.

If not lets hope they at least sale / pass on some of the rhizomes to scuppeteer to at least keep things growing

Not going beyond the farm trials doesn't sound good, it certainly sound likely that we won't be seeing much more of it.

Re: flyer hops . first tastes
Not sure on the year as they will be with me on wednesday.Probably 2011.
The info i got was 'they are available and will continue to be grown' so fingers crossed for the future.

Re: flyer hops . first tastes

Re: flyer hops . first tastes

Re: flyer hops . first tastes
Hi All I brewed a Spring pale ale yesterday using Flyer as Bittering hop, then i used Flyer with a touch of Celia as finishing hops. Man that Flyer is Damn SEXY
. I think this Hop will give some va va voom! back into the English hop market.I don't wan't to be rude but i think Charles Faram are mad if they put Flyer on ICE. It has fantastic bittering qualities with a super charged challenger flavour aroma. happy brewing folks

Re: flyer hops . first tastes
Well from what i have been told about Flyer is "There is no stock and we are unsure if there is any more arriving as it is only a very small area that its grown on". So i presume someone may have snapped it all up this year. I do have a fair bit put away though
. And i am looking for other varietys to offer.
