Dry-Hopping Some Coors Original?

[UberMikeRoweBrew]

I have some Coors original left over from a wedding, and was thinking of dry hopping it. I pushed it from the sanke into a 10G corny so i could serve it on my draft system, and needless to say it doesn't seem to get much attention. There's only so many beer brats I can eat.

Anyone have any experience with dry hopping some BMC?
Hop Varieties, Ratios, Results?

This should be interesting...

Do it!

seems like there are better things to do with hops, but hell go for it. As far as amount and types of hops; you can't make it worse, so anything would be good.

never done this, but i vote for cascade

Glad it wasn't a keg of Miller. I'm not sure you could add hops a 4th time.

The only person to quadruple hop anything in history was Charlie Sheen. I tried some and was like "dude, un-hop this bastard, can't handle it", it was hoppier than anything from this terestrial realm.

Citra, if you can find it might be something.

Oh and edit: you can steam clams in beer too.

I'm legitimately curious now even though I'm not sure this will be any better than regular Coors Light. Just toss in 2 ounces of cascade. See what happens. If it's somehow worse it gives you an excuse to dump it

i found it works best with whole cones, but get a french press put a cone or 2 in it and fill with beer let it sit for a few minutes then press and pour into a glass. This way you could try different varieties and see which works best.

That's actually a great idea. I wouldn't mind trying that with other beers. Kind of a homemade Randall substitute. I think I'd have to buy a second French press. Not sure the one I use for coffee would be great for beer.

Got me thinking about doing this.

So if one were to dry hop a commercial keg....how many hops would be required to satisfy a hop head?

hoghead, thughes, -- you guys are on to something. Ill post results when I decide whats best.

French Press: "WINNING!"
