Is there a point where you can use to many varieties of hops in a beer? I have five different ones sitting in the freezer right now and I'm thinking of just throwing together a recipe before they go bad.
I have
4 oz Willamette
2 oz Amarillo
2 oz Chinook
1 0z Saaz
2 oz Simcoe
Is there any reason I couldn't use all five of them in some combination? Does cluttering up my recipe with that many hops make for a beer that tastes "cluttered"?
I know I could use three of them in one and two in another ( and still might ) but I'm not averse to a little experimentation either. That's the whole reason I started homebrewing.
As always, thanks for the advice!
