This will be the new name of my brew, my Fuggles are coming in very nice this year (still need to fertilize them for more stimulated growth) But cones are coming in strong.So I decided to make a 5 gallon batch of a Fuggle IPA, any thoughts how I should brew this? I got no grains or yeast and am willing to try anything in the english or american styles(I know not alot of bittering is going to be obtained so I will be using a bittering hop either Magnum, Columbus or Chinook)

Carlos,Here is a recipe that I brewed last year and used Fuggle leafs that I had gotten from Freshops. I think it turned out wonderful and I got a lot of great feedback from it as well. Sounds like you got a good harvest going on too. Here is my recipe to at least give you some direction or use whatever you choose. Good Luck let me know how you go about doing it.
