Has anyone used this newish variety? What do/did you think?
I'm currently tasting an early sample of a "leftovers" beer I made thatI hopped with Glacier to try it out (.75oz 60min, .25oz 5min). It's got me interested, but I'm not sure what to think of it. The only adjective that comes to mind is "balanced," which is what I thought when I smelled the freshly opened package. It's like it has all the flavors/aromas you associate with hops in equal proportions.
Frankly, the beer I put it in is drinkable but nothing great - granted, it's still a little green. I'm thinking of trying a single-hop IPA or APA with it to get a better idea.
