Still can't work out why POR, superpride etc isnt considerably cheaper in Australia than imported hops. Whos taking the cream off there? Distributers or growers?

A few years back I was buying POR etc for half or less the price of imports the next year the supply company which is also the grower doubled their price and it has remain this way ever since. So in this case its both.

Of course not. So why isn't Aussie Cluster 40% cheaper than US Cluster at the retail level? Why don't we see the same differences in hop prices as we do in grain prices, with the Euro stuff more expensive than the Aussie?

Keep paying too much, **********.

You wouldn't believe how many people have PMed me to ask where to get cheap hops.

Shouldn't you be playing the pokies? Your attitude says that you'd be that kind of fool. I like it when fools pay idiot-tax so I don't have to.

Check your PMs - I've forwarded you an email from a nice Nigerian chap. He needs your help, and I've told him you'll be perfect.
