Getting ready to brew up a microstyle pale ale and looking at the recipe. Wow, it calls for 1 1/2 ounces of Northern hops for bittering. I looked over my other brews and the most I've used was about 1/2 or maybe even one ounce. Is this going to peg the meter on hoppiness? I'm not a real hop lover and was thinking maybe I need to cut it back or just add some of the left over hops towards the end of the brewing for flavoring.
