Hi all,
So I'm trying to brew a 12C Porter in line with the BJCP guidelines, and in the ingredients it clearly states "Continental hops." period, no explanation.
So my question is: is 'Continental hops' only those hops grown in the continental UK? (I assume it's a broad category and not a specific type of hop.)
My recipe (a Finnish Porter) calls for:
Northern Brewer
German Hallertau Hersbrucker
Czech Saaz
...am I going to have a problem with the BJCP guidelines when it comes to judging?
