Hop Substitute

[gibbocore]

Hi Guys, i'm looking at subbing something for Styrian Goldings as i don;t want to use it for bittering cause of the low AA in the latest crop. I'm doing a duvel clone and would like to stay close to style. Any ideas?

I'd go Northern Brewer or Perle

Spalt works well in Belgian styles, but I'm not sure you'll be able to find a high AA crop.

I'd go Northern Brewer or Perle

is NB fairly neutral? I could then just do a 20g@ 20 mins and 20g @flameout of Styrian goldings and or sazz.

...or when the synapses between your fingers and brain get lazy after a few brews? Haha...

I'd like to keep this recipe pretty close to duvel so i think i'll just run the Nbrewer for bittering and whack some styrian goldings and sazz in for flavour. Let the yeast give the nose.

Cheers guys
