accidentally put boiled whole leaf hops in the fermenter...

[Rivenin]

howdy!
just a question that i thought of.. made the mistake of not using a hop bag for whole leaf hops... i was a little toasty at that point, thought if some of them went in, it'd totally be fine in the fermenter..
spring forward about 3 weeks after i put it in the fermenter. i opened the fermenter to what smelled like satan ate asparagus and then pee'd into a bottle of beer.... wasn't infected, but just smelled really highly of soon to be rotten veggies with no hop smell at all.
Closer inspection found left over very stark white ((????)) hops floating on the surface, then i knew what it was. (it was about a 1/4oz of hops in a 1.5gal batch, so it was a good amount in there)
is this a problem with whole leaf hops in a boil and fermented? because i know dry hopping of course will be fine or will pellet hops do this as well? i'm asking because i made a porter about a week ago, and tossed in the pellet hops into the boil, after opening this batch i'ma little worried

That really shouldn't present a problem. I tend to pour my wort into my primary fermentation unit w/o straining when I use pellets, so I don't see much of a difference between the two. A few weeks (out of habit) I did the same with whole hops.

If you brewed a Belgian, that Satan's asparagus pee may not be that far off from what can sometimes be the norm.

I say bottle and hope that funk mellows out.

i dumped it, didn't want to waste time bottling it with that smell. (it was only like 2/3 gallons of a smash all togheter)
but, it was not a Belgian at all, was just a SMaSH recipe with maris otter and citra hops (actually had the same batch with split citra and summit, both semi smelled the same)
