Yes, so do plenty of others but i've left things a tad late!
See the box on the right. Look at "similar hops"

What yeasts have you looked best in your experience?I've been gradually working my way through the book the past few years, Exmoor Gold and Old Peculier are regular brews here. Just done Fullers London Porter and the ESB, and both are good too.
Personally, I'm not a fan of modern hop-forward beers, in fact my Christmas stash has none of them. I do have an American Brown planned to brew over the break.
Graham Wheeler, still relevant?
Onto the subject of hops, Wheeler has northern brewer for 24 ebus. That'd be fine except the HBS looks to be out of stock.
Whats on their website doesn't always match reality (too late to phone) but any idea what a suitable replacement may be?
Yes, saw that. I didn't trust the xmas post to turn up on time though.CrossMyLoof have northern brewer available in 25g/50g/100g packs. I'm sure P&P is included in the price (best check) and they despatch everything pretty quickly
Which book is this recipe from?If I have to choose one, Eldridge Pope Thomas Hardy Country Bitter is my favourite, I’ve brewed it 12 times!
It is from Brew Your Own British Real Ale At Home, which was published in 1998 I believe (I don’t have the book handy as I am away on holiday).Which book is this recipe from?
Here you go, mine is the north american 1998 print.

Wheeler for flavour, Hughes for Process, Pattinson for history, Andy Hamilton for all of that rolled together into one book, with humour thrown in. BYOBRA though should be in every home brewers book collection, if only so you have access to some of the truly classic British beer recipes that just never go out of style. Like a well made black suit for a gentleman.
