Vienna Smash Hop Choices?

Post by sleepyjamie » Fri Jul 20, 2012 8:10 pm

Went through my grain cabinet yesterday and I have quite a bit of Vienna kicking around. So I got thinking about making a Vienna Smash IPA.

Here's some hops I got kicking around:

Nelson Sauvin
Amarillo
Cascade
Galaxy
Citra
Centennial
Apollo
Summit
Northern Brewer

Whats your guys thoughts?

They did a Vienna Citra SMaSH over here at Gahan House a couple months ago, which I have to say one one of my favorites brews of theirs ever. It had very little bitterness but tons of flavour and aroma. All late (20min+) hops I presume.

Every single one of them. That`s my plan come the new hop harvest. Every hop in my freezer is going into a monster IIPA.
At Alexander Keith's we follow the recipes first developed by the great brewmaster to the absolute letter. :wtf:

Centennial would probably go really well.

Personally, I'd go with Amarillo. Good dual purpose hop.
