The Captain mentioned Amirillo hops, I can't get them, everyone raves about them, those using them, is it worth it?

well worth it IMO Dogger.. so much so that i bought a kilo :wink:
similar flavour to cascade but a little rounder.. i've heard it described as stonefruit rather than the citrus tag of cascade. & i tend to agree.. theyre not as sharp as cascade & they dont have that dirty after taste in the back of the throat that i find cascade has.. amarillo is alot smoother IMO. & the AA is higher than cascade too :P theyre a good alrounder IMO..

slightly off track again - has anyone tried simcoe?
