I am looking at doing a dark IPA but have no hops listed in this recipe. Still consider myself a newbie to brewing so dont have a lot of exp with matching hops.
I have amarillo, cascasde, citra, mosiac anf galaxy.
I am just wondering which would suit the brew best or do I need to find a hops with higher alpha %
