The pages have been deleted from the website, though as I am sure you all know, they will stay cached in Google's database and gods knows where else.
Prost and happy brewing!

Put your name in "quotes" like "Denny Crane" and search that way.

Used these guys (4x100g of the Hops). Very good service, as I paid via direct debit I think they must have posted them before I even paid, thats how quick they were!

Not good the leaving everybody's details out in the open like that though

They have cleared it up, it was removed from the website and Google removed the search from their cache.

Certainly a great deal, and now it is even safe to take advantage of it!

They are vacuum sealed, bought some earlier this year, no probs at all.

Just had a look on their website though, and I couldn't bring up any hops details - could still view yeasts, grains etc but not hops. Strange.

I am not sure what the deal is with these guys. I tried to take advantage of their last remaining advertised hops on the website a month or two ago, and it turned out the had none and had to send me a cheque in the mail to refund my payment. I assume that the hop deal was offloading old stock, but that is merely an assumption.

Until they advertise fresh stock, I would forget them for hops.

I am sure you are right Tipsy, I give them full benefit of the doubt.

I just got this back off them re: the situation:

"Our site does show the special on the opening page (as it is currently not updated).
As you point out, our hops stock level will not allow an order to be processed. Grain is available.
[...]
We will be updating the site, and this will include additional items very soon, so keep an eye out..."
