Ok so planning on making a nice ipa next and I'd love to use up some of the hops I've slowly stockpiled. Malt bill is going to be pretty straight forward. Something mainly 2 row, a little c40 and maybe some carapils.

As for hops I'm not sure but I've got the following available

2 oz warrior
2 oz summit
3 oz galena
3 oz nugget
2 oz Columbus
3.5 oz willamette
.5 oz mt hood
1.5 oz tradition
.5 oz citra
.5 oz tettnang
1 oz northern brewer

It seems I've got plenty of stuff that works well for the bittering additions with the summit, warrior, galena, and nugget but am lacking in nice bright favors for the aroma and flavor stuff. I want a nice balanced flavor and aroma. Not too far in any direction (dank,earthy,floral,citrusy, etc) but something that strikes a nice balance between some of those. Any help would be appreciated
 
Warrior or Columbus @ 60 - (20-35 IBUs)
Galena or Columbus @ 30 - (10-25 IBUs)
Nugget and Summit @ 15 - (2 oz. total for a 5 gallon batch)
Galena and Nugget @ 7 - (enough to finish of the target IBUs you're shooting for)
Summit and Columbus @ 0 - (post-boil aroma steep)
Citra, Summit, and Nugget @ dryhop (5-7 days)
