<p class="has-drop-cap wp-block-paragraph"><a href="https://www.crosbyhops.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Crosby Hops</a>, an independent, fifth-generation hop grower, processor and merchant based in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, has begun distributing directly to Canadian brewers. This expansion ensures Canadian breweries of all sizes gain streamlined access to Crosby’s full portfolio of hops, advanced products and customer experience tools, delivered with the same high standards and flexibility already enjoyed by U.S. brewers.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Crosby’s entry into Canada as a direct supplier builds on its reputation for quality, innovation and customer-first service. By removing distribution barriers, Canadian brewers will now have the ability to order Crosby hops directly from the source, giving them more choice, fresh hops and an enhanced connection to the farms that fuel their creativity.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How this partnership benefits Canadian brewers</h2>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Enhanced selection</strong> – Brewers can access Crosby’s curated <a href="https://www.crosbyhops.com/hops/varieties/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">hop portfolio</a>, including <a href="https://www.crosbyhops.com/hops/t-90-hop-pellets" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">T-90 pellets</a>, <a href="https://www.crosbyhops.com/hops/cgx" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CGX® Cryogenic Lupulin Pellets</a> and <a href="https://www.crosbyhops.com/hops/cgx-nuvo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CGX® NUVO cryogenic fresh hops</a>.</li>



<li><strong>Advanced hop products</strong> – With Crosby’s patented CGX® cryogenic lupulin pellets, brewers can achieve more flavour intensity with less input while improving beer yield and reducing storage, shipping and handling.</li>



<li><strong>Flexible payment plans and contracts</strong> – Crosby offers customizable contracts and monthly payment options to help breweries plan with confidence.</li>



<li><strong>Toronto-based account manager</strong> – Crosby has appointed <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-mountenay-76914616a/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Alex Mountenay</a> as its dedicated account manager based in Toronto, Ont. With deep industry experience and a passion for craft beer, Mountenay will provide on-the-ground support for brewers across Eastern Canada, ensuring responsive, personalized service.</li>



<li><strong>Responsive customer support</strong> – Crosby’s highly rated customer success team provides exceptional service, with 90 per cent of orders shipped within 24 hours and an 85+ Net Promoter Score.</li>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">To support this expansion, Crosby has strategically positioned warehouses to enable faster, more efficient delivery across both Eastern and Western Canada. The company will also manage all brokerage and customs logistics, making it easy for Canadian brewers to order directly with confidence and convenience.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“Canada is one of the most dynamic craft beer markets in the world, and Canadian brewers deserve direct access to the hops, products and services that help them thrive,” said <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/blake-crosby-9731ba33/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Blake Crosby</a>, CEO of Crosby Hops. “This move eliminates unnecessary layers and gets our hops into Canadian brewers’ hands faster, fresher and with the level of service we’re known for. It’s about building a closer connection with brewers and supporting their continued innovation.”</p>
