So this is pretty funny I hope. I had a few friends over to make up a batch of oatmeal stout last night. All was fun and games, pizza and beer, good times, the boil went smooth, pitched the yeast around midnight and woke up to the beginning of fermentation.
What is the trouble you ask?
Heh, maybe a few beers too many (or adjuncts ) low and behold there is 1 oz of Kent Goldings sitting on the top of the microwave!
Crap, the pizza showed up with 15 min left in the boil and I forgot my finishing hops!!
-idiot-
I was thinking that I would just dry-hop it with that oz, what do you think?
thanks

*Edit, after trying to figure out how the hell this happened a new light is shined on the situation, not such an idiot after all (at least less than before). Let me explain, one of the LHBS here are kind of jerks but close to my house, they sell you crap you don't need. They only sell hops by the whole oz no halfs, they round up and take your money, jerks. Anyway, my bittering hops were only 1.5 oz so there was .5 oz left in the bag, sitting next to the goldings. The left over chinooks got thrown in with 10 min left instead.
lesson learned, well worth the drive to the good shop
