I plan to brew a barleywine (1.105 OG) tomorrow. With the second runnings, I'll make some sort of APA/IPA/Brown Ale. In any event, I plan to dry hop my barleywine after aging and then carbonating in the keg. I have several alternative plans; which would you recommend (after primary fermentation):
(1) Rack to secondary glass carboy to let age for a year or more, then dry hop right in there prior to racking to a keg and carbonating.
(2) Rack to secondary glass carboy to let age for a year or more, rack to a bucket and dry hop, then rack to a keg and carbonate.
(3) Rack to a keg to let age for a year or more, then dry hop right in there using a mesh bag (I'd just leave the hops in there during carbonation and until the keg is empty).
(4) Other?
Danke!
