About a month ago I brewed up a Black IPA, it was in the primary for 2 weeks then dry hopped with 1oz each of cascade and citra, then kegged. I pulled a sample from the keg after a few days and it tasted great, awesome balance of hop bitterness and malt flavor and a great aroma from the dry hops. So after waiting another week for it to force carb (13lbs at 40 degrees) I tried a sample an it has lost all of its hop aroma and flavor and is now dominated with an intense chocolate coffee flavor. So my question is, would keg hopping this beer help at all?
Here is the recipe:
1lb carafe special III
12oz Crystal 60L
12oz Chocolate Malt
3lbs Amber Dry Extract
3.3 lbs amber Liquid Extract
8oz Molassas
1.5oz Cascades
1.5oz Citra
Dry hops
1oz Cascade
1oz Citra
Steep grains at 165, boiled 60minutes adding the hops in .25oz increments every 7 minutes.
