Thanks for the reply. This beer will be bottled since my kegs are all full. I usually let beers go for 4 weeks in my primary with no secondary. So with this beer could I do primary for 4 weeks, then transfer to a carboy for 1 week of dry hopping or should I trasnfer at week 3?

I would ferment it out completely for 4 weeks, then dry hop for a week. You could totally go either way though. I would recommend whole leaf vs. pellet hops for the dry hop, just to make sure you don't mess with your clarity by adding a bunch of hop gunk into the mix.
I usually use a hop sack for dry hopping and will try leaf hops for a change.
Thanks for the reply. I look forward to brewing this once we get snow which I use to make a cold water/slush bath to get to a quick cold break. (Cannot run my garden hose to power my wort chiller in the winter).
