I passed this around last night. The thought was something between Chinook and Northern Brewer. Piney/woody/earthy with no citrus. It made an ok American Amber, but not the big West Coast version that most people crave.

I concur. I'll be bringing a growler of this to Homebrew Day for sampling pleasure.

I'm going to brew this weekend.
What do think? Blonde Ale with an OZ at 60.

I wouldn't use them for bittering on an American blonde.

Go for it. I used 1 oz of Willamette for a Blonde ale with good results. For the record I also had .5# of rye malt and .5# of jagerarry sugar in mine, and used the White labs dusseldorf alt yeast.
