All Fuggles IPA??
I have a lot of fuggles to use up. Would an all fuggles IPA be something worth drinking??

Yes, I had a average score of 41 for a English I.P.A. at the Indiana Brewers' Cup with an all Fuggles Blue Eyed Moose a few years back. I still use Fuggles and Cascade in the Moose.

I also used Fuggles instead of East Golding in my Scottish 80 shilling brown ale.
It turned out great.

As much as it might surprise Dwayne, I'm not the only one that uses Fuggles.
I've used them in my IPA, stouts, bitters, old ales, winter warmers and Scottish.
Except for my lagers and wheats I've used them in most my brews. I've yet to try them in my wheats but plan on next summer.

Well, four days in to the fermentation and so far it smells and tastes pretty good.

Re: All Fuggles IPA??
I have an English IPA recipe that is all Fuggles, and oak chips used in the secondary for that "Authentic" English flair.

I did make an English IPA for Big Turkey and it has some UK Fuggles in it.

Re: All Fuggles IPA??
Fuggles and East Kent Goldings are the two traditional flavor hops in English ales, hard to go wrong with using them.
UK Fuggles tend to have a nicer flavor than US grown ones, I've found. I use Fuggles in all my English ales.

Re: All Fuggles IPA??
A little off the Fuggles topic, but still on English varieties... I bought a pound of a newer variety, First Gold, last year, which is a Whitbread Golding variety, with higher alpha acid levels. I'm pleased with the results.
