So I have a bunch of Bramling Cross hops and am planning a simple special bitter recipe for this weekend using them exclusively. The HBT wiki states that they are a unique and underappreciated hop with black currant and lemon flavors. Does anyone have experience with them and what did you think? Here is the recipe I'm planning on making:
Bramling Cross Special Bitter
OG 1.043
IBU 27
SRM 9
6 lbs. Maris Otter
1 lb. homemade crystal 60 (although I'm not sure the malt was completely converted)
0.5 lb. Simpson's Caramalt
0.75 oz Bramling Cross (60 min)
0.5 oz Bramling Cross (15 min)
0.5 oz Bramling Cross (0 min)
1.0 oz Bramling Cross (Dry Hop)
Any thoughts?
