Craftbrewer is about 45 mins north of surfers paradise in Carbrook, i just ordered hops online and they do 450gm for $20 which is pretty good in my book and all come vacuum sealed

Just make sure that you declare them and you should be fine, might be a different story if they found them and you didnt declare
Im not sure though as im not sure that anyone has ever bothered smuggling hops, they probably arnt looking for that kind of green substance
