I have been brewing for some time.
Bought some 2019 509Hops at the end of 2020.

They were all sealed and I stored them in the freezer when I got them.

12gal batch of NEIPA dry hop schedule was 6oz and 6oz (Citra/Mosiac/Ekunaut)
I got nothing for flavor/aroma.

Just opened the 1lb bag of Galaxy from them, I can't smell anything.

All seems odd to me. Anyone else use them?
 
Are you able to smell or taste other things ? Hopefully so. Assuming you can, 6oz in a 12 g batch isn't much at all. I use 4 to 5 in my 5 g batches.
 
10oz whirlpool
6oz + 6oz dry hop schedule

I opened the 1lb bag of Galaxy from them. Shouldn't it smell like awesome hops??? Barely has any smell when I open the bag.
