It will not be consumed until 17th of march Ill rack off in 3 days into a keg and let age a couple weeks by then the grass should be mowed and it was 3 OZ not 4 made a typo

and they are old hops to

Oh, good, you may be fine then. I did 3oz of Cascade dry-hop in an IIPA one time, and it needed to age a month after racking off the hops for the grass to subside, it did turn out to be really outstanding beer though.

Kyle, do you remember how long you dry-hopped for?
More than 7 days?

Kyle · February 21, 2012, 10:48:58 AM

yes, it was as follows:

1oz for a week,
then add another oz for a week,
then add andther oz for a week
so three weeks total

Just kegged this; tastes pretty damn good warm and flat. Didn't add gelatin to this batch due to dry hopping. Wish I had, it's pretty cloudy.

(fixed by Richard - you're welcome.)

What does that cloud taste like Davey??
Milk is Cloudy, OJ is Cloudy, Good Apple Cider is Cloudy...
Clarity is for weenies.
