AFter reading the hops shortage thread and Evan's bulk grain order thread I decided to buy some bulks hops
Northernbrewer is THE place to get them right now, lbs of popular hops for around 10 bucks. That's a steal. The interesting thing is all these new aroma/flavor strands I've never heard of. Any ideas what I should make with these? Their descriptions sound tasty. Here's my order:
Qty 1 Chinook Pellets 1 lb.
Qty 1 Simcoe Pellets 1 lb.
Qty 3 Summit pellets 1 oz
Qty 3 Vanguard Pellets 1 oz
Qty 3 French Strisselspalt Pellets 1 oz
Qty 3 Polish Marynka Pellets 1 oz
$35 bucks
Strisselspalt:
Typical alpha: 2.0-3.5%. These authentic French Strisselspalt are just the thing for making Saison or Biere de Garde. Very mild, with aromas of black currant.
Vanguard:
Typical alpha: 5.0-7.0%. US-grown hybrid with Hallertau Mittelfruh parentage. Sweet, slightly spicy aroma and flavor.
Marynka (Polish):
Typical alpha: 3.0-4.5%. Dual-purpose hop with a highly aromatic character described as cedary, rooty, and licoricelike.
