    I just drank a cream ale for the first time ever.

    Ah, yes. Genny Cream Ale. I used to play rugby for the Genesee Creamers. We'd get a keg donated for every home game. Genny Screamers are what you got the next day.

    Beginner Dry Hopping Mistake!

    Just a guess here but this doesn't sound too different that adding hops at flameout. You shouldn't get any grassy notes but the aroma we be substantial less than if you waited.

    What to do with green (unripe) hops
