I know this has been discussed before, but I wanted to revive some discussion on this hop variety.
I have a pound of super high alpha, 18.1, summit hops and I have a few beers fermenting using these hops. I am wondering if this hop is smooth and flavorfull enought to act as the bittering, flavor and aroma hop for a nice pale ale.
I was thinking of doing a summit hop pale ale, 6 gallons.
10 pound marris otter
1 pound crystal 60
1/2 oz summit at 60
1/2 oz summit at 15
1/2 oz summit at 10
1/2 oz summit at 5
1/2 oz summit at Flamout
OG around 1.055 or so...FG around 1.012

3 weeks in primary with no dry hop.
