What are some medium to high alpha hops that wouold deliver a dose of bitter without too much aroma? Usually i use english hops in these, but the AA's are low, let me know what yo guys think..
 
I like northern Brewer and Willamette in stouts.

edit; but i have also used a lot of noble hops in them. Look at the recipes for stouts, look at what people are using for what styles try them out if you like them change them up. I have done 5 stouts and I am always trying new flavors. I think i choose Northern Brewer and Willamette because those are the last ones I used :)
 
Are there some good earthy high alpha hops? Just usually only use a select variety don't xp much wit hops.
 
I like using Cascade for my lighter bodied dry oatmeal stouts, it supplies sufficient bitterness and the flavors and aromas are a nice break from the usual.
