How much flavor comes through from the type of bittering hop you use? Is it perceptable? Would you be able to tell the difference between, say, centennial and chinook for example? I assume there must be some differences that come through, otherwise there wouldn't be so much variability in which bittering hops are used.
Also, if your recipe calls for a certain amount of bittering (ex. northern brewer) hops at say 10%AA, but the hops you have (northern brewer) are 8%AA, and you adjust the amount you add so that the IBU's are the same as in the recipe. Will you notice any difference?
Thanks
