Hi All,
This is my 4th batch since brewing again and bottled a Beerworks President's Sierra Pale Ale Kit on 6th February which is now carbonating. https://www.lovebrewing.co.uk/presidents-sierra-american-pale-ale-beerworks-craft-brewery-series/
I dry hopped with 50g Citra for 5 days at the end of fermentation.
I much prefer these flavoursome ales that you can get commercially where you can really smell and taste the hops but with the last 3 kits (different kits) using dry hop methods, I just can't get close to the taste I want.
Am I simply expecting too much from these kits and being unrealistic thinking I will achieve anything close?
thanks all
