I have a lb of both US Northern Brewer and US Magnum hops. Has anyone else used these two in combination?
I like Magnum as my bittering hop, but I'm kind of afraid of the double resin-y effect of using both of these.

I was thinking of something along the lines of:
5 Gallon Batch, ~6gallon boil
10lb US 2row
1.5lb Munich
1lb Corn Sugar (For dryness)
2 oz Magnum @ 60 min
1 oz NB @ 60 min
1 oz Magnum @ 15 min
1 oz NB @ 15 min
1 oz Magnum @ 10 min
1 oz Citra @ 5 min
1 oz Citra @ Flameout
Dryhop with 2 oz Citra.
---
This would put me at 1.068 OG (70% eff), and 7.9% ABV with ~110IBU.
Do you think the NB/Magnum combo would be too earthy/piney?
