Hi all,
I'm re-brewing a beer I did awhile back. The only thing that is changing is the dry hopping amounts because I couldn't get whole leaf Amarillo. In the original recipe I dry hopped with 1.5 Amarillo and 1.5 Simcoe and I was a big fan of the final product.
This time around I was planning on dry hopping with 3 oz of Simcoe, but I'm worried about a "catty" smell. Personally I've never experienced this, but is it a similar smell that Citra produces? I did an all Citra Wheat IPA and loved it, so if both hops are "catty" maybe I will be alright. Any input would be much appreciated. Thanks!
