Collaborative Survey with the Ontario Craft Brewers
The OHGA recently collaborated with the Ontario Craft Brewers (OCB) to survey OCB members on their hop purchasing and usage.
Some key takeaways include:
- 80% do not buy directly from a hop farmer
- 80% say that buying local is important
- They know what is here and how to find them
- 80% buy less then 10 000lbs per year
- More than 50% are not proprietary varieties
- Quality is very important and price not so much
- Availability is important
- 90% buy from a distributor
