So this weekend I hope to brew a BierMuncher Helles Belles. He calls for Tettnang hops. Well as we all know those proably won't be around for awhile. So I looked up and found that two substitutes would be Saaz or Spalt. My local LHBS said that either of those would be fine but Crystal was a closer match. Does anyone have thoughts on that? :confused:

crystal is more like hallertauer and mt.hood then tett's. You can still sub it out though and it will taste very well.
