Well i have a few odds and ends of hops in the freezer that i would like to use up and i have been thinking of brewing a nice nut brown, or honey nut brown and came up with this recipe after looking at a few others online and one at my LHBS. How does this look? will the chinook work ok in this, since i am just using it for the bittering? i would like a nice nutty flavor with a touch of honey sweetness to it. i will be doing an extract batch for this since i dont' yet have a 2nd pot for doing a PM.
