Re: Hoptometry Appointment
I agree, 1 oz each Simcoe and Citra would be really good. I think you will certainly get some flavor. I saved my last Pale Ale by keg hopping (the one that placed in competition), the hops were way too light. The keg hopping brought some fresh, clean hop character. Lots of aroma and flavor, especially with potent hops like Simcoe and Citra.

Re: Hoptometry Appointment
I keg hopped this two days ago with one ounce each of Citra and Simcoe. Wow, what a difference. The aroma and flavor are now just incredible. It’s cloudy as hell, like a NEIPA, but that doesn’t matter really. The keg hop took this from being a below average DIPA to a really good one. Thanks for all the insight and help guys!!

Wait, did Paul just make an A-Team reference?
If my experience on keg-hopping holds true, it's going to get stronger in the next few days, too. 2 days isn't pulling it all out yet so you should be in for even more aroma in the next 3-4 days.
