I am getting ready for our local homebrew competition and need some advise. I don't want to enter an IPA/APA b/c there will be a ton of them. That said, I have the following hops I would like to use:
hops weight ounces
sterling 1.28
magnum 12.5
zeus 7.14
newport 3.57
northern brewer 1.42
cascade 4.28
centennial 2.14
chinook 1.21
summit 1.07
amarillo 6.42
I also have about 15 pounds of Wheat malt, 15 # Pilsner and #3 Honey, but this isn't as important as I can get to the LHBS and pick up what ever I need. So does the collected wisdom of the board have any suggestions for a beer to brew to BJCP guidelines with mostly the above hops in a not too heavily entered competition. BTW the competition is in about a month, so not too much time the get it kegged and bottled. Thanks for any help and if this is in the wrong place, please move it. Thanks
Jeff
