How long, in the freezer, does a properly stored bag of hops hold it's aroma/flavors?


At least a year for flavor and aroma hops, even longer if you vacuum seal them.

I've started splitting my hops into 2 or 4 ounce vacuum sealed bags so I don't have to keep pulling the entire pound out of the freezer.

bittering hops last for years... I think the magnum I use is 2013 crop, maybe 2012.

so anything over 4-6 oz. is sort of a waste, depending on what i'm brewing


If you had a lb of citra on hand, I'm sure you could find SOMETHING to use it in.
