I ordered up a pound of fresh columbus hops, 2010 harvest pellets. I usually use magnum for bittering, and I am hoping columbus also proves to be a decent high alpha bittering hop.
the real reason I bought the hops...... is that I am still searching for that hop variety that I seldom encounter in IPA's.....the kind of dank, stanky, thick, pungent hop aroma that comes from a certain variety dry hopping. I have encountered this in a dog fish head brew and a few others before.
I hope I am not barking up the wrong tree with these hops....but I already have a recipe formulated in my head for an IPA using columbus for bittering and dry hopping, with centenial and cascade late in the boil.
14 pound two row
1/2 pound victory
1/2 pound munich
1 pound C40
1.5 oz columbus at 60
1 oz cascade at 10
1 oz centennial at FO
1 oz cenennial dry hop
1 oz columbus dry hop
1 oz cascade dry hop
pacman or WLP001....maybe WLP007
