So I finished brewing my second NEIPA ever. I used the Trinity Julius clone recipe and cut everything in half to make a 5 gallon version. Everything went well. 3 weeks ago I kegged the beer. Unfortunately couldnt do closed transfer as my Big Mouth Bubbler lid kept blowing off. Im very disappointed in the results. The color is beautiful and fairly hazy. Definitely does not look even slightly brown or oxidized. But there is zero aroma and the flavor is zero juice. Tastes like a weaker west coast IPA.

So heres my question...can i attempt to rescue this at all by putting some keg hops in? I was thinking about sanitizing a muslin bag and dropping 1 or 2 ounces of citra pellets in the keg.I know it will introduce O2 but i spent a ton on hops for this beer and want to at least get some juice out of it.

Thoughts?
