Hello all,
My brother-in-law and I recently brewed a decently big Barley Wine(All-Grain-OG 1.100) and let it sit in the primary for 2 weeks, then racked to the secondary where it has been for just shy of 3 weeks. The problem is I made a rookie mistake of dry hopping(.5 oz East Kent Golding whole hops) it once it went into the carboy(secondary). I had completely forgetting about hop vegetal flavors this could add. So now we are in a jam as to what to do.
Should we bottle it and let it condition in there? Rack to a different fermentation vessel without the hops?
OR let it sit?
Our original plan was to let it sit int he secondary 4-6 months before bottling.
Any help would be appreciated!
