I ordered the Fat Tire extract kit from NB. It arrived today, and I'm not happy. It was suppose to come with:
1 oz. Willamette (60 min)
1 oz. Mt. Hood (15 min)
Instead it came with:
1/2 oz. Summit Pellet Hops Alpha 16.7% (60 min)
I understand that there is a hop shortage, and they will substitute hops if they are out of something. But, I would expect to get hops similar to what their kit advertised (and still does advertise) not just the equivalent AAUs.
They may have substituted the AAUs, but where's the flavor/aroma hops. The substitute kit calls for adding the the entire 1/2 oz. at the 60 min. mark, so how's that suppose to replace the flavor/aroma hops that you add at the 15 min. mark?
Am I just being an A$$ here, or would anyone eles be mad about this?
