But the prices for those varieties will always be wide open.

DDiageo , Smithwick's Pale Ale probably bought all the amarillo up <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt="" title="Wink" /> , but Riwaka can be a good sub

Riwaka is a lovely hop, but according to the New Zealand part of the report, those hops might be hard to come by too.
