Bittering hop, perhaps?

Hops can be added for bittering your beer (boiled for long time), for adding flavour (boiled for ~15mins or so) and for adding aroma (boiled for 5mins or less). And there's also dry hopping.
 
yep, bittering addition at the start of the boil, but personally I would add it as the first wort addition.

As opposed to, say, "M hop"?
You so stole my joke. And now, after reading it, I'm so glad I didn't post it! :p

Jeez....forgot how much Goldings or EKG you need for good bittering....
