I think the suggestion is to add some Columbus to the nuggets.

Yep. About double the Nuggets to Columbus.

So I pulled the dry hops yesterday (1.5oz Columbus, 3 oz Nugget)and stuck the keg in the fridge at 10 psi. I pre carb in the keg so it almost carbed. Pulled a sample today. Nice tan head. It has the malty feel and bitterness but the flavor and aroma hop are lacking. Specially the aroma. I thinking about dropping some more Columbus or Citra in for a few days to get the aroma up. Thoughts?

Edit: I only had the Sticky Nug once and it was after a few others so maybe it's spot on. I don't quite remember what the aroma was like. It has a earthy/slight piney/resiny taste, also a little grassy finish. Anyone have or remember what the aroma and flavor were like? I'm trying to find some to do a side by side. Yes I know the dryhopping didn't and much bitterness. Thanks.

Pretty sure dryhopping isn't the source of your bitterness.

Sometimes when beer has been on the gas for a short time it can add some extra bitterness, but that should fade after a few days.

Been drinking on this for a week or so now. It gets better with every drink. The CO2 might have gave it an extra bit of bitterness initially, but it is well balanced and awesome now. The sticky nug is the only dank tank I've had. Any others I should get?? I'm gonna have to get a few more next chance I get. I still need to do a side by side as well. Maybe I can save some until then. Cheers!

I recently had the Ghoulash IPA. I liked it. Very hoppy but smooth.

The new 420 IPA is great and extremely hoppy.

New? I like 420 but was not aware of a new one.

This is a Dank Tank, not the regular 420. Pretty much a non watered down version that we put a metric ton of Centennial and Cascade dry hops into.

Thinking about it, it might not be everywhere yet as it was just packed and bottled.
