Hi all,

Just brewed an American Stout. The recipe called for bittering hops at 60 minutes, and then 1.0 oz of Centennial at 5 minutes. Due to a screwup we continued the boil an extra fifteen minutes.

This effectively makes the Centennial a "20 minute" addition in some respects. How much of a difference is this going to make? Would it make sense to add some dry hops, or does this take it a totally different direction?

Thoughts? Thanks.

FYI... The SG is 1.085 and target was 75 IBU.
 
Probably won't be an issue in a beer that size. You might have to age it out a bit to let the hops mellow, but I doubt it. I don't think you have anything to worry about. I'd skip the dry-hop; you'll have to age this one for a while and aroma hops won't last.
