Hops?

I have heard the chatter about a hop shortage? My LHBS is having trouble getting certain types.
Wheres everyone getting their hops?

I got a bunch from hopsdirect but they're limiting customers to 1 pound on most varieties.

Yeah, harvest was not great this year. I am working on my clubs order right now, and we won't be able to get everyone everything.

Corky, I wish I would have known you were ordering, we could have piggy-backed everything together to save on shipping. We will have some sub-pound hops left, so if there is something you only want a few ounces of, I'll let you know what has not been spoken for.

Let me know what you have leftover, I may be able to use it, especially your non-high AA stuff. BTW I do have your glass with the Texas flag, if my son comes up this weekend I may send it with him.

Hop shortage? We had a good year for hop production in the Chicago area.
