Sterling substitute for fuggles

[tpeterseufl]

So my local home brew supply shop didn't have the fuggles my recipe called for. The guy replaced them with sterling. I know they were out of willamette. Does this seem reasonable?

Here's the hop schedule.
17g Horizon 13%AA @60
14g Fuggle 4.75%AA @30
14g Cascade 5.75%AA @30
14g Cascade 5.75%AA @0

Thoughts?

Should be fine. Sterling is spicier than Fuggles, but has earthy aromas. The Cascades will dominate in either case.

Great, thanks for the response.
