Hi All,
Yesterday I brewed my third batch ever.
All three times I have noticed that the next day, randomly throughout the day, I get a whiff of hops from seemingly nowhere.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Is it in my:
  • Nose
  • Skin
  • Mind
?
Do I need a
  • Shower
  • Shrink
  • Beer
?
:drunk:
 
Were you at home all day? I get hop smells coming from my airlock on the first few days of fermentation. That is probably what you're smelling.

Lol @ thread title
 
Hops can be a very pungent smell; are you wearing any articles of clothing today that you wore yesterday while brewing?
 
No. And, I was kidding about the shower; I showered. I think its in my mind. No one else has this experience?
