Hops for Irish Red?

Don't be afraid to use Willamette- they are easier to find (for me, at least) than Fuggles, and are extremely similar

I used them in my cinnamon-infused November Red Ale and its GREAT (even the little sis will drink it)

Not terribly. You can tell slight differences, but the US Goldings are a very good substitute, especially in these troubled times for our happily hop-heavy heroes. (I'm feeling alliterative today.)

I've been using US Goldings extensively, and they work great. It's just which side of the big blue they were grown on.

Excellent, thank you! I'm planning on doing an ESB soon and no dice on EKG at the LHBS.
