I have an IPA I've brewed for a competition where I'll actually be serving the entire 5 gallon batch from a keg. I just finished dry hopping for 14 days in a secondary & kegged the beer to begin carbonating. The brew didn't have the aroma I was hoping it would when I transferred to the keg, so I'm thinking of dry hopping in the keg. I'll be out of town for a week prior to the competition, returning the day before and actually less than 24hrs before I'll have to start serving. If I dry hop the night before serving will I get any aroma? Should I dry hop right before I go out of town and end up dry hopping for a week? Does it matter if I use pellets or whole leaf hops relative to the amount of aroma? Thanks
