I visited my LHBS yesterday to grab some Magnum hops for general 'all purpose' bittering hop use, as has been my habit for some years now, but they were out. Suddenly 'Nugget' hops popped into my mind, and they had Nugget in stock at 14.2 AA's. I nabbed it.
Then I started reading about Nugget hops and I'm beginning to think that this hop may make a better generic "bittering addition" hop than Magnum, plus it has a bit more AA units, so less is required.
Your thoughts?
