Suitable hops for English and American ales

[clibit]

People often use more than one hop for dry hopping. Citra and cascade should work very well.

Cheers mate, would 25g or so of each work well for a 23 litre brew?

Looking forward to this one, as my first brew has definitely given me the bug!:

Yes, 25g of each would be good. :thumb:

Even if you don't like the pungent American hops there are plenty of options apart from Citra. Try Amarillo at the end. And Centennial, Motueka, Wakatu, Crystal, Sterling, Mount Hood. There are other English hops you will like. Challenger, First Gold, Northdown for example. Do try First Gold, it's great.

Good call!

I only recommend citra at the end because woodfordes told me to. Not as explicit as that but when I suggested it they applauded my choice.

I'm from and live in Nottingham. We have no ties. But woodfordes were brilliant in helping me create my finest ever all grain beer.

Citra gives the tropica after taste.

Citra is impossible to get atm

It's expensive but I dont think it's impossible to get. I think my usual goto GEB has it in stock

Interesting that this thread has been re-activated.
Clibit's original post is always a useful reference.
