Simcoe in a Pale Ale.

hukdizzle · 01-20-2009, 01:26 PM

Anyone done one? Any comments on it compared to the more traditional hops used in pales? I'm gonna be doing Ed's Haus Pale soon and replacing the Cascade with a Simcoe schedule to net the same IBU amount of 40. I am assuming a more floral and citrus like smell from the Simcoe, basically a more inviting aroma but a similar bitterness considering it's a dual purpose hop.

Any experience with such?

Thanks,

CJ
