American Brown Ale is great for Fall and Winter. I brew one every year with Nugget, Cascade and Willamette homegrown hops. Nugget for bittering and a mix of the Cascade and Willamette. I now have a couple of Vojvodina hop plants [ cross between Northern Brewer and a Golding male] that I plan to try for bittering. I think these or Northern Brewer would work well in this style. I try to limit too much citrus type and mix with the woody and floral hops as I find the citrus mixed with a good amount of roast is not my thing. Nugget is herbal and woody with a little spice and Willamette is a Fuggle derivative and is spicy, floral and fruity. They play well with the citrus type hops to my tastes.
