How can I find hop replacements or substitutes?
How can I find hop replacements or substitutes?
When phasing out a variety used in your beer, or choosing a replacement because of lack of availability please contact one of our technical sales advisers. They will be able to advise a direct swap, blend or substitutes that are available.
The Hop Variety Knowledge database has suggestions for alternatives although, there are so many variables in the way you use the hops that could affect the recommendation. Availability of replacement varieties may also be a consideration. We’re happy to help and provide you with a more informed choice either in person, by phone or by email.
For simple substitutes you can check out the hop variety knowledge section on our website. Our order takers can also make straight forward recommendations, but if you would like a consultation please speak to our huge bank of experienced resource available for brewing advice.
