Hey all:
I'm planning a single - hop IPA (would do a SMaSH brew, but I'm still extract brewing). I'm looking for a woodsy, spicy hop; something similar to northern brewer. I was looking through the different hop lists stickied in this forum, and I'm having a little difficutly. I was hoping to have a list of potentials, so that when I go to my LHBS I can find something in stock that I want. The BYO guide seems the most useful for my purposes, but I thought that I'd post my potential list, and see what y'all think.
Northern Brewer
Chinook
Pride of Ringwood
Nugget?
Am I crazy for using any of these as a single hop? most of the SMaSH postings I've seen seem to be using Amarillo or Cascade...
any thoughts would be appreciated. I'm hoping to brew this sunday...
