About Möst Hops

Möst is a modern hop developed by Charles Faram & Co Ltd and grown in the Czech Republic. Its name, meaning “bridge” in Czech, reflects its role in connecting UK breeding expertise with Czech hop-growing tradition.

This variety was created alongside UK hops such as Jester® and Olicana®, sharing a similar focus on bold, fruit-forward flavour. It quickly gained attention for its unusually expressive aroma, particularly for a Czech-grown hop, delivering strong strawberry and bubblegum notes backed by tropical citrus.

Möst remains a relatively new and limited-production hop, making it a unique addition for brewers looking to experiment with modern flavour profiles. It has already proven itself in brewing trials, where it showcased vibrant aroma and excellent drinkability.

Freshness, Packaging & Traceability

At The Malt Miller, we take hop quality seriously. All hops are stored in our temperature-controlled cold store to maintain their freshness, aroma, and brewing performance.

Each pack is nitrogen flushed and sealed in a high-quality, resealable mylar bag. This protects the hops from light, oxygen, and moisture — preserving their essential oils and alpha acids until you’re ready to brew.

Every pack is labelled with a batch code, allowing full traceability back to the supplier. This means you can access detailed information such as alpha acid content and harvest year, giving you complete confidence and consistency in your brewing.

We contract and source our hops from the finest merchants and farms around the world, ensuring you get the chance to brew with the same high quality product that professional breweries use.

Using mylar bags which prevent light degradation of the hops, flushing the bags with nitrogen to remove oxygen and cold storage of them until ordered by you, ensures the hops are as fresh as possible.
