My son bought me some admiral hops for my birthday, bless him he is only 12 and he always buys me something for my home brewing, I will be doing a 20 litre extract brew on Tuesday, what would be a suitable hop to use with the admiral? I have goldings, aurora, challenger, fuggles and centennial . I will be using coopers light lme, medium dme and so4 yeast.

Thanks guys

Seems to be a high alpha bittering hop, which has a citrusy flavour (though it's questionable to what extent that'll survive a full boil), so goldings, aurora would be good as, I suspect, would be challenger. Fuggles should work as well. Never used centennial but from what I've read, they'd work also.
