Sorry for the way late reply here. I just used the regular recipe, it turned out great. In fact, I just made it again, it's the first recipe I've made twice. This time I used wyeasts American wheat yeast since I wanted a less neutral beer. Bottled it a couple nights ago, so I'll let ya know how that one turned out!

I used the original recipie, but still having issues dailing in my system after moving so ended up about a gallon short after the boil so it was a little stronger.

I'm gonna be brewing this tomorrow, but couldn't find the simco hops anywhere so I'm gonna use galena instead, anyone have any thoughts on how that will turn out?

Galena is a sister to columbus so it will different. Since you will be using it in the 5 min addition you don't need the high alpha acid content! you could use something equivalent to simcoe in the aroma department Mt hood is a very under rated hop for it's aroma. I highly recommend trying Mt Hood! Galena is a hop lacking in the flavor department what else do you have around? You could use galena to bitter and use mag for the rest.

I have galena, hallertau and fuggles on hand, I wasn't able to brew today, but will be brewing tomorrow with one of these hops in place of simco... I'm taking suggestions.

I would use the fuggles unless the hallertauer is tradition than I would use those. you can't go wrong with either you won't get the flavor or aroma you want from galena.

FYI for those that may be checking this out every so often, I used Wyeast's Kolsch yeast on this beer, and it was fantastic!

I'm thinking about doing this and subbing Motueka for one of the late additions... Any thoughts?
