I know freezing hops is the best way to store them. How long do hops stay fresh when frozen?
They'll last a long time when frozen. I should have plenty of hops to last me through 2015 for my hoppy beers. Got a pound of Simcoe, Mosaic and Amarillo, as well as just under a pound of this Nuggetzilla and just over a pound of Citra.

Frozen and air tight/vacuumed packed they should be good for a long time. I have used 2+ year old hops and they were just fine. I'm sure they could last indefinitely if stored properly.

Buy a vacuum sealer and they'll last practically forever. I use 2-3 year old bags with zero issues. Buying hops by the pound is one of my primary methods for brewing cheaper and not having to sub ingredients. I buy about 10 pounds once a year and work off that.
