I like beer! - IPA's and similar atm, but i drink most beer. Looking in to start brewing myself (having a kit at home) I'm also looking in to growing my own hops.

Do you have any recommendations on what verity? Something that could be used for many different brews but have a distinct taste.

What hops you should grow is more determined by your growing conditions than what you want to drink.

I live in NM, so I have two varieties of NeoMexicanus, plus a new drought tolerant variety called Vista.

I generally shoot for varieties that are hard to get new, so that's a good fit for me.

However, if your in Sweden I don't even know if you can grow hops outdoors. Your climate is about as opposite mine as we could get and still both be growing hops!
