A shopper on Nov 29, 2016 BEST ANSWER: Like many products, fresher is better, but hops do store very well in freezers. Properly stored, hops can be good for several years. All our hops that we repackage are nitrogen-purged at packaging time and packed in light-proof bags to preserve them for as long as possible. Keep them in the refrigerator or a freezer for long-term storage.

Reply Inaccurate Mike W Staff on Feb 21, 2017 0 Well the fresher the better, but if you keep your opened hops in air tight containers it will last for a year. Longer if it's still unopened as when you bought it. I keep my brewing supplies in a cool room. Reply Inaccurate Dwight C on Feb 21, 2017 Purchased on Sep 2, 2015 Vote for the best answer above!
