Comes darn close to Sawtooth, a personal favorite. If you keg: try substituting whole leaf hops for the 1 oz Golding and instead of adding it at the end of the boil, put it in a hop bag and throw it in the keg at kegging time. (of course you will want to boil the hops in a little water for a few minutes and add all the soup including the hop bag to the keg. This makes for a nice hop punch!
