Dry Hoppin'

Biting off more than I can chew, I've decided to dry hop my beer. This is an American thing where you add hops during the aging process to increase the hoppy aroma and flavor. In my case, all I've most likely done is mess up my beer. I added about 1.5 ounces of Cascade hops - again, I'm fearing a syrupy mess.

Also, I give you the root of the phrase "the bottom of the barrel." Look at that nasty mess that is a by-product of wonderful beer.
