Hey all,
I got my ingredients in the mail today. . Haven't craftbrewed for 7-8 years and I'm really looking forward to getting back into it!
Anyway, I opened up the hops to have a whiff, never tried Galaxy or Nelson Sauvin so I got some, along with POR. I was surprised to note the POR at only 8.7% AA and when I smelled them it was much less harsh than I remember. Probably just batch specific by I was wondering if anyone else had come across this? Could just be me loosing my marbles too lol.
The Nelson hops had a distinct ammonia note to them too. Is that normal?
Cheers!
