Hi All,

Below I have a list of hops I have, including what I have found on the internet for profiles of each. Looking for input for combinations, usage, etc. I like hoppy beers if that helps to focus input.

Cheers,
Scot

I just brewed an IPA using 2oz NZ Pacific Jade 2oz Australian Galaxy paired with centennial @ 0 minutes and dry hopped with 2oz cascade. Used 9.9 # breiss Pilsen extract and .5# caramel 30. Came out really good but the few bottles I have left have lost a little hoppiness. But it's been several months since they were done brewing. They were awesomely hoppy at first.
