Hey all.
Made a belgian ipa yesterday. After 6 hours already fermenting away goodo.
Trying to figure out a good dry hop for it.
The recipe was -
6.6lbs pilsner
4.4lbs pale ale
0.5lb caraaroma
0.25lbs Special W (probably shouldn't be in here but what the hell).
2lbs belgian candi sugar (I'll add in a few days).

HOPS -
Warrior 25g 60 mins
Warrior 25g 10 mins
Styrian golding 50g 0 mins
Liberty 50g 0 mins

YEAST - safbrew T-58

Mashed grain 145°F 75 mins temp. Probably a bit low but i want it a bit dry.
Mashed out at 158°F
90 min boil
20/25 mins hop rest at the end.
Cooled to 65°F 13/14 mins.
Efficiency 75% ( BIAB )
1.064 O.G. w/out belgian candi sugar
Room where I ferment is sitting at 64.7°F at the moment fermenting.

Was thinking of dry hopping with styrian golding so I can feel the yeast flavours still or maybe a little citra aswell. Or just citra. Anybody have any good ideas. All are welcome and greatly appreciated.

UPDATE -
9 hours in and already dropped over 20 points.
 
I would go with St Goldings,as you have it in there already.
Or
A similar hop,like Bobek
