Im on a SMaSH kick so would suggest you try some simple single malt single hop brews to highlight the flavours each of the hops you have collected offer..

This one took second place in a Pale Ale contest last October. It's not a SMASH, though.

You could use a little less Magnum where I used Hallertau.

Well, Paddy what did you end-up brewing? I hope you had a fun and productive brewday.

Cheers!

I brewed a magnum and wai-iti pale ale as I couldn't find the other hops the brewday was a bit of a pain had a bit of a stuck mash but got through that then forgot the Irish moss. Hope it will still turn out ok though. Cheers paddy.

Be interested to hear what you make of the NZ Wai-iti, as I've got some in the freezer.

Cheers

I'm sure it will be more than ok. Nothing wrong with a hazy, flavourful beer. Cheers!
