To all of you who have brewed many batches over the years:
do you notice any difference when bittering with different hops? Do the fruity/earthy/etc tones really come out in the beer after boiling hops for 60 minutes?
If not mistaken, I recall reading that John Palmer uses the same hop (Galena I think) for all bittering purposes. This makes me wonder if I should simply buy in bulk, hops with a high AA.
