Truth be told, I chucked in the dry hops for the sake of using some older pellets up.

It could be dry hopped with most American "fruity" style hops, and less than I put in and you'd go pretty well.

The dry hopping doesn't seem to have much effect on the balance of taste, between the bitterness and the malt, but the aroma hits you like a concrete boxing glove.

More photos (Not necessarily better, as I struggle with the pic quality of the iphone. The ads lie, believe me):

Man, this is nice, even settled down from the sledgehammer aroma it had a week ago:
