I'm making an English Pale Ale and I cannot get my hands on any fuggles. I have a bunch of UK Kent Goldings, so I was going to use these for bittering & aroma.
Good idea, bad idea?

Either is good, but I would use whichever has the higher AA% so you can use less of it. Alternatively if you have any fairly neutral high alpha hops (galena is a great one for this) they can be used for straight bittering additions so you can conserve the more expensive hops for flavour and aroma.jvh261 said:In an ESB using US Goldings & Fuggles, which would you use as the bittering hop. I've seen so many recipes going both ways.
