I just brewed northern brewers Patersbier and i goofed on the hop additions and was just wondering what difference it will make in the beer.
It called for
1 oz hallertua @ 60
1/2 oz Saaz @ 60
1/2 oz Saaz @ 10

I goofed and added all Saaz @ 10

the rest of the Recipe:
8oz carapils specialty grain
6 lb Pilsen LME
wyeast trappist high gravity

I'm sure it will be great beer, just wondering if it will make much difference and what the difference will be.
 
I brewed that same beer myself just out of curiosity. Your fine with the late addition on the .5oz of Saaz its a low alpha acid hop so your not getting a lot of bitterness out of that hop. If anything you'll get a bit more flavor and aroma out of the hops now with the extra late addition.
 
How did yours turn out? I added only about 1 lb lme at 60 and then the last 5 lbs at flame out to try to keep the color on target. It turned out very light in color and is happily bubbleing away.
