Is it possible to buy off the shelf beer, empty say 20L worth of pale ale or pilsner into a carboy and dry hop this beer several times to add hoppy goodness? Is it then possible to recarbonate by adding sugar before re-bottling?
Is it possible and what potentially could go wrong?
If possible this would be a great way for hop heads to get their fix with reduced effort in between full scale homebrews. Also would be an easy way to quickly make several batches of single hop beers to get a better idea of flavor profiles of different hops. Thanks.
