Hops for a munich SMaSH ale?

[drchris83]

What kind of hops would you use for an all-Munich SMaSH, OG should be around 1.045, I'm planning on using S-04.?
Thanks in advance for your help!

What sort or characteristics do you like from your hops?

Earthy, spicy, woody, herbal, citrus, fruity, pine....
The list goes on... i would try looking thru an online hop guide for different hop characteristics and choose that way.

I hate referring to WIKI but heres a decent list...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hop_varieties

I vote German Tettnanger. Good luck!

For a SMaSH I would use some hop that I am not familiar with. Actually, last night, I brewed a Munch SMaSH with Smaragd hops. Package said fruity and floral, but all I could smell was a spicy kick. Pretty interested to see how it turns out.

Hersbrucker or Sterling. Tettnanger is also good.

This sounds intriguing. I just might do that, provided I can get my hands on some smaragd.
