Recently brewed an Belgian ale that I whirpooled most of my hops. But when I tasted it before racking to the keg it was a little lacking on the flavor and aroma I was going for. So I figured I'd dry-hop right in the keg and get a little more out of it. I only added about 1 oz extra but I'm tasting it now after 2-3 days and it seems to have added a very sharp bitterness that I don't like. These were pellet hops, not the usual leaf hops I use for dry hopping, but I have a fine mesh tube around the dip tube to keep any particulate out.
Anyone else encountered something like this? Does it mellow with age or what? I don't always dry hop in the keg but I've never had this issue before.
