I am looking in to purchasing a lb of hops. I was looking in to EKG and Fuggles, but couldn't decide between the two, because I had nothing to compare the flavors of each to. I ended up buying 1 ounce of each. My idea is to brew 2 small batches. Probably a mild, bitter with an american hop (Willamette, Centennial, Columbus ...), and and the Fuggles and EKG in at 10-15 minutes.
Would this be a fair comparison between the two? I intend to use the same grain bill for each, but am concerned about using an american hop for bittering. Will this interfere with the flavor of the English hops too much?
