I have some US northern brewer hops and Chinook hops does anyone have a recipe I can use these with. I like to have at least 8% abv or more.
 
I did this one last winter. I got crappy efficiency but at 70% you'd end up with an 8% beer. Northern Brewer and Chinook would be great in the place of what I used. FWH with the Northern Brewer and do late additions at 10 minutes and less with a combo of the two and you'll have a kick a$$ American Brown.
