Fermentation took a few days to take off.  I was going to pitch more yeast but decided to wait and fermentation finally kicked off after a little over 2 days.  This definitely isn&#8217;t normal but the yeast I had was a little older and it sat on my front porch in the heat.   Fermentation finished off and tossed int he dry hops for a little over 5 days, as I went to Maine for the weekend, and finally transferred over to the fermentor.  I took a sample,  very tasty but may be a little too bitter for me.  Will find out once its carbonated and cold.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex
