my latest pale ale is pretty dry and meh.

Sounds about right ;D

ok, so almost a week.  the color is much lighter than it appears.  poor lighting.  citra dominates the aroma, but the amarillo/simcoe is there as well, albeit subdued.  it is dry, which is how i enjoy my pales.  the hops dominate the taste.  i’ve never dry hopped a beer as heavily as i did this one, but now i know.  completely different beer from when i made this thread.
