I'm planning on ordering 6 or 7 lbs of hops from hopsdirect in the next week or two, and I'm looking for advice on what varieties to order.
I'm pretty new to brewing, have a few batches under my belt, but still trying to keep things reasonably simple. I brew about 10 gallons split between 2 batches a month. I like english style ales, but I'm open to pretty much anything, so I'd like to get a decent variety of hops to work with.
I was thinking something like:
Amarillo
Chinook or Nugget
Hallertau
Magnum
Willamette
Northern Brewer
Figured that would give me a couple of different pairs of sort of aroma/bittering that would suit a couple different styles.
I'm pretty set on Amarillo, but the rest of them I'd change if there were other recommendations.
Thanks in advance!
