Hello,
So I’m pretty new still and doing all extract. I wanted to make a very basic ale so I used ~9.5 lbs CBW pale ale LME in 5 gal. I boiled 2 oz YCH Willamette Hops (a = 4.2%) for 60 minutes and put in a Whirlfloc tablet the last 5 or so minutes of the boil. After cooling it down, I pitched some Imperial Flagship A07 (200 B cells) liquid yeast. I’m fermenting at 19-20 C.
My question is... I didn’t really add any hops for aroma. I don’t think it’s a big deal. I plan on letting it sit in secondary until December and making some butter beer with it anyhow, so will have lots of other aroma from that. But if I were to drink it normal (which of course I’m going to bottle a few and try it), is it going to be super bland due to not adding any hop aroma??
Thanks for the help! & Cheers.
