From the Malt Shovel website -
"Willamette hops are added late in the kettle boil for a refreshing citrus (almost grapefruit) hop character. "
I myself havent found them to be citrus like. I'd say more floral. Similar to Fuggles/Goldings

Willamette is the hop used in Tooheys Black and is a classic hop used in mostly ales. For and IPA I would be using Fuggles as this is the classic IPA hop. Cascade hops are a great hop that I use a lot in Porters and also in some lager styles. It imparts a citrus aroma/taste.

MHD,
What do you want, Flavour or Aroma, the two are seperate items.
If it is flavour, make a tea and add it prior to priming. If it is aroma, dry hop it now.
