I know hops fades over time but this seems REALLY REALLY quick. So I made a Dead Ringer IPA clone from northern brewer about 5 weeks ago bottled it and let it sit for 2 weeks. The first bottle I had some pretty good hop flavor and aroma (not as much as I would of liked, but I think that is an issue with Hop utilization I have with my stove). I tried two last night and I could barely taste any hops at all.
it was 1 oz of centennial hops for 60mins
" " for 20 mins
and 2 oz of centennial hops for 5 mins.
I also added 2 oz of centennial hops in the primary for 2 weeks.
I'm going to try some more tonight for confirmation.
