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.

I got into brewing because I wanted to try the random hop that had been growing in my parents yard for ages. Turned out ok! Likely not a noble variety but it suggests that basically any hop will "taste like hop".
